I guess I am just venting here, but I am soo frustrated with my ex. He refuses to extend my daughter's thanksgiving visit with me for an additional 2 days so she can be here for the birth of my second child. My daughter is almost 8 and was very excited about being the first to hold her after me and her stepdad. I am having a scheduled c-section so there is no variability to what day this will happen. This is going to be my second daughter and probably last child, how could he take that experience away from her??? I don't know how to handle knowing that she wont be there at such an important moment in my life and hers. If she's not here when the baby is born, she probably won't get to see her in person until she is almost 3 months old. I can only pray that some moment of awakening will hit him and he'll see what he is really doing is hurting our daughter. That is a day she will never get back.
