how long will it take for danika to get used to not having her dada around. i leave on a train tuesday afternoon, to move back home. right now when she sees him in the morning before he leaves for work she is cranky for about 2 or 3 hours. then about the time he should be home she always wakes up. every night. it will be hard for her to not be with him but i really am wondering how long until she isnt upset. its bad enough i am upset about the break up i dont want her like that
thanks mamas...

I think it depends on how old she is. I can't really say either way because my little girl's dad wasnt around, even though we lived in the same house. She'd be kinda cranky after he'd start trying to be there for a couple days and then all of a sudden he was gone. Shes about one now and hasnt seen her dad for about a month and shes ok

God it made me really sad reading this. Honestly I have no idea but I am sure it wont be too very long.
When my parents adopted my 2 little brothers it was only a few months before my parens where mommy and daddy and their real parents where not even brought up. (they where 1 and 2 when we got them).

how old is your baby? you would be suprised how short term memory babies have. i work at a daycare and parents dont want to leave their kids because they're crying but sometimes the kids stop crying before they leave the parking lot. outta sight outta mind. but it is only the day so i really wouldn't know long term.
poor baby though do you plan on letting her see daddy on visits?

*Also babies can feel your emotions so if you are really upset and stressed she is going to know and probably be the same way*

well danika is 5 1/2 months right now and she loves her dada so much she calls for him all the time. it breaks my heart that after tuesday it will be almost 6 months before seeing him in person. he plans to fly up there for her one year birthday. with him living in texas and me in michigan it will be hard to have regular visits but anytime he wants to see he he is more then welcome to either come up there or wait til i can afford to come down here.
he also wants to move up there later on after he gets this management job but not to be with me just to be there and close to danika
i hurt so bad i dont know how i am going to make a 30 hour train ride like this with her

chances are she will enjoy the train ride and it will probably break your heart to hear her call her daddy more than hers right now i dont think she will really understand whats going on. but when she is older and is having visits it might get harder for her, you and dad. bad situation it must be really hard i hope everything turns out well i am sureyou know whats best and thats what you have to do.

well its what is best for us but i dont wanna do it. but i always told him that if one of us isnt happy then we need to cut it off. because if one person is happy and the other isnt it wont work.well he isnt happy anymore. so here i go.
when i told him that i didnt think we were going to be having kids since i was told i was never going to have them. and well here we are with our little girl

kids complicate relationship problems. it amkes it harder for everyone. but you hear all the time "we stayed together for the kids" i dont think thats the best solution usually.
