how old of a newborn? is the mother breast-feeding? breast-feeding would be problematic for an extended visitation but after the child is older perhaps on a bottle age is not really a barrier. newborns are better off not moving back and forth between homes but when they are a few months old there should not be a problem. again as long as they can be fed! fathers are capable of parenting a child as the mother with that obvious breast-feeding concern. as long as dad is willing able and capable of changing diapers etc. has a duplication of all of those baby needs (crib carseats infant seats etc) in a safe home i don't see a problem. children need both parents so if they can't be under the same roof at least they should have adequate individual parenting time.
a mom & dad do not live together they co-parent newborn. at what age is it ok for dad to bring the baby home?
