I just wanted to get some opinions, and thought this was the best place to do that. I have been broken up with my ex for about 2.5 months now. We have a child together, and have always made it a point to buy for each other from our daughter, since she is still little. Should I still do this? I don't know if he is planning it, or if his new girlfriend would allow it, but I kind of want to get a little something for him from our daughter. I was thinking, since his is a huge Michigan fan and I just saw the cutest little Michigan fleece for our daughter, to have her picture taken in that. I have a free coupon for the picture and the fleece is $7.99, so I would not be spending a lot of money at all. Ever since I was pregnant, he wanted to have something Michigan for the baby, so I kind of think that this is something he would really like. I know, too much thought? I just want to kind of extend the olive branch, and let him know that I still have his best interests in mind. Is this reasonable, or am I thinking too much? It really just came to me when I came across the Michigan fleece for my daughter, and again, it won't be expensive, and it is a picture of his daughter, something he always loves. (Even if it goes into his new apartment with the g/f, I'm ok with that!!).
Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!!!

The gift is really from your child, not from you and if his new girlfriend can't handle that, then maybe he should think twice about being with her.
He will always be your childs father, so there is nothing wrong with trying to keep the relationship between the two of you a good one.
