so i found out i have a 7 month old daughter a week ago but lives 250miles away, my ex said she wasnt mine at first and lied and told me to stay away i proceeded in court and got a dna test done, no visitation rights have been settled in court yet, i have only met her once.
im going to meet her in a weeks time, ive asked my ex for some pictures of my daughter but she says she doesnt have any, so i mention taking pictures of her when i visit, she said she doesnt feel comfortable with me taking pictures of my own daughter, she also proceeded to say after i mentioned i would do anything for my daughter that it was "odd" because ive only met her once.
I have no idea why she would feel uncomfortable with me taking pictures of my own daughter... i feel so upset right now that she would say such a thing, any advice would be appreciated, when i visit do i just take pictures? i feel as if its going to damage me visiting her, im confused.
True,
It's not like your taking them in a public place where other kids are etc, Get as many pics as you can as my Ex has only sent me one in 5yrs found another 4 via social media today.
Will there be anyone else there that can take a picture of you holding her...that would be a good one to have! If its just you and her, ask her to take some of you and your baby together...or take one of those tripod things with you!
Try not to get upset, thats what she wanted...theres nothing wrong with wanting photos of her. As far as you being odd because you love your daughter, well theres nothing at all wrong with that... she's the odd one!
Have a wonderful visit with your baby girl 🙂
Ive only seen her once as my ex told me she lost our baby, she told me to stay away, because i would of caused her another miscarriage, ye she blamed it on me, she told 2 other guys that my daughter were there child.
there will be no one else there either, as im going to meet her at the train station and going to walk around, there have not been any visitation rights or anything else as the next court hearing isnt until next month.
Ive literally been waiting 7 months for the court to be organised and DNA results to be taken and returned which i found out last week, basically my ex was trying to keep me away.
shes had a lot of problems with her mental health also so it doesn't surprise me the things she comes out with.
thanks for the support, cant wait to go and see my little one, so excited!
