A: You need to get a court order, without one in place it will be obviously very difficult dealing with the circumstances. Without an order of the court, you both have equal rights to the child; With no visitation or custody schedule in writing.

A: If you are not in Court on this and there is no divorce filed you can't do much. THe husband/father has as much right to him as you do. Get into Court and you can ask the COurt to decide what to do.
