A: I'm not sure what you mean by split custody. You may be able to request joint decision making. you also may be able to request age-appropriate parenting time. Breastfeeding would have to be taken into account. The point is that the court can decide these issues rather than just accepting what the mother dictates. You should retain an attorney to help protect your parenting rights.
