Don't know what to do
      02/22/07 08:41 AM

Hi I'm new to this forum. My husband and I are trying to get custody of his son. We got married when his son's mom was 6 months pregnant. We did not find out about the baby until 2 days after our wedding. The baby is almost 5 months old now.
We went to the hospital and saw the baby the day after he was born. Then we saw him for 2 hours when he was 2 weeks old. She would not let us see him again until he was almost 2 months old. My husband met with her and signed a notorized agreement giving her custody until court and giving him visitation. She also signed the agreement. The agreement was everyother Saturday from 11am until 8pm. She let us get him for 3 agreed visits and twice overnight when she had plans. Now she won't let us see him. We have not seen him in almost 3 weeks because shes mad about the upcoming custody court date.
The mother lives with a convicted child molester, lives off others because she won't work, puts the baby on the dirty floor with nothing between him and the floor, started spoon feeding the baby at 2 1/2 months old, etc. She uses him as a pawn and if we don't do everything she wants us to and say nice things we can't see him. She spends very little time with him. Others tend to him a lot while she plays on the computer, sleeps, watches tv, etc. She did drugs and drank while pregnant and admitted to not caring if the baby died. We have proof of all this.
When the baby is here my husband and I hold and play with him. We rock him to sleep. She said that she puts him in his crib and presses his glow worm until he falls asleep.I feel theres no mother/child bonding.
My concern is that the court date is months away and something will happen to the baby before court. He had very bad thrush and she didn't tell us. We saw it during a visitation and asked her about it. She got mad because we asked. We can't protect him because we are being kept away.
She even refuses to put my husbands name on the baby. Her comment was, "I don't want your name on him so I can run things and you can't say anything or do anything."
My husband supports the baby. When we got him for visits we provided everything he needed her including diapers, wipes, formula, etc. We drop off diapers, wipes, cloths, gallons of water for his bottles, etc. He pays no money because she refuses to take it. She said if she takes money it'll affect her back child support order. She filed for child support but hasn't filed for custody which proves what shes worried the most about. We are the ones that filed for custody.
Does anyone have any advice on what to do?
Thank you, Alisha
