Hello and welcome to the board! Until you sit down with your attorney and work out the custody/visitation arrangements you are pretty much on your own. If you are lucky enough to discuss your concerns with your STBX, then maybe you can work out something.
One thing I learned the hard way is that your court orders may end up being your best friend if your ex is difficult and/or selfish. I was married for 21 years and I have been divorced for 4. There are so many things I wish I had known. ONE of my biggest mistakes was assuming we would be able to work together and I really put myself at a huge disadvantage with my original divorce decree. I was trying to be "nice" and not make waves. It cost me alot of heartache and money to get it straightened out 3 years later.
The second biggest mistake I made was going online and dating only 5 months after my divorce. The ladies here have lots of experience and good advice. Dating as a Single Parent is also an excellent board.
I look forward to reading your posts and I hope you stick around!
