Hi everyone, there is a lot of good information this site which is helpful even though I feel I have a long way to go before I care my daughter again.
My ex and I separated when our daughter was three months old, she is now five months old and I’ve not seen her for over four weeks and there is no communication from my ex.
Yesterday I had my MIAM which my ex declined to attend, reason being she has safeguarding concerns.
When we were together, we argued a lot and swore at each other and on at least one occasion she had recorded me swearing at her which makes me look and feel a bad person, and she accused me of raising my hand to her which I did not and I have denied.
During the MIAM it became clear I was not going to make any progress as to seeing my daughter anytime soon and therefore I need to complete a C100 form seeking a court order to be able to see my daughter.
I will initially be happy for limited time with my daughter due to her young age and as my parenting skills improve extend the time that I am able to see my daughter.
I am most concerned about the abuse allegations, and as far as I am aware, no official authorities have been involved and my ex just got the voice recordings of me, being verbally abusive towards her, even though in the past, she has been verbally abusive towards me and slapped me in the face however, this will end up being just my word against hers.
I am trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel but by then my daughter would’ve grown so much and I would’ve missed many of the milestones. This morning is a low point for me and I just want to reach out to you all for some reassurance and advice
