Just finalized the paperwork after 18 months of dealing with lawyers and court dates. Got 50/50 which is what I wanted. Feels surreal being able to spend equal time with my kids instead of just weekends. Moving into a bigger place next month so they each have their own room. Took longer than expected and cost way more than anticipated but it was worth it.
18 months of lawyers is rough. I'm doing the co-parenting thing too and the paperwork alone is exhausting. How are the kids handling the transitions between houses?
Been there. Once we got the paperwork settled I felt like I could finally breathe. Congratulations on getting through that mess.
Congratulations man. 18 months and lawyers is rough. Getting to 50/50 is huge though. How are the kids adjusting to the new schedule?
That's a win. Seriously. Dealing with court stuff is exhausting and you stuck it out. Your kids are going to know you fought for them to have both parents equally involved.
That's a win. The legal side is the worst part but getting to 50/50 means you actually get to be a full parent without fighting for time. Hope the kids are doing good with the arrangement.

Congrats man, that's huge. The legal battle is brutal. Now that you've got it finalized, how are you adjusting to the actual 50/50 schedule? That's been the tougher part for me honestly.
Huge congratulations. The legal fees alone would have broken me. Now you get to focus on what actually matters with your kids instead of dealing with courts.
