baby's visitation with dad

I think the key is to maintain really good relations with your ex.    I know my ex and I really had to work together to establish the rules and what worked and for how long.

My daughter was 5 when we divorced and she is now 7 and things are evolved to what fits her schedule as well as ours.   We do everything to make it easiest on her first and ourselves second.    She has a lot of activities on the weekends so one of us needs to handle all of those things and its usually my ex.   I handle all the during the week stuff.  Homework, projects, doctor's visits.   On game days (Sunday afternoon) we are both there.

Mostly it works if you two talk everything out and are aware of the calendared events and responsibilities.

MNL was lucky that this is an arrangement that the ex agreed to.  have you talked to your ex candice to see if he wants him overnight? 

if he does, i do not know if there is a way to legally stop it.  i remember something about nursing rules, though. so you may want to check that out in your state.

i was nursing my son during the divorce, and my ex insisted on taking him over night.  my state allowed it and also allowed the girlfriend to sleep there too.  we don't have a morality clause here.

very frustrating.

but you have his mother there, right?  i'm sure she will do most of the heavy lifting.

When my 1 year old was younger he only stayed with his dad for a few hours 2 days per week.  He went over on Saturday and stayed a few hours and then he also got him a few hours on Sunday.  My benefit is we also have a 13 year old daughter.  She is always with her brother.  He has just recently started staying Saturday nights and coming home early Sunday morning.  We did it this way so it would be easier on him.  His dad left me when I was pregnant and my ex is not used to small babies so it worked out for all parties.
