hi myles,
im sorry to hear that. this name changing [censored].she can change childs name to peppa pig, but it doesnt change the fact who the father is. when i was sitting in court, i overheard 2 other lawyers arguing, because some silly woman wants to change kids names.
my ex did similar, almost goading me. if i want to take legal route then i am free to do so. she thought i wouldnt do it because of the costs involved. lol 🙂 the times i was seeing kids was reducing week by week, and no overnights. so it was court time.
it sounds like she doesnt give a [censored] any more. make another attempt to reaching your own agreements. if it doesnt work, then book an appointment with a family mediator. can book a session for under £100
The baby is still very young, you would be wise to allow the mother to set the pace for the next couple of months, forcing her hand at this stage will only get her back up and that will make contact even more difficult.
If she’s a first time Mum she’s likely to be over protective, but that should settle a she gets used to being a Mum. If she is breastfeeding, contact time would need to fit around that for the first few months too... patience will be needed I’m afraid.
All the best
