I am sooo sorry you are going thru this.  I am in the same situation.  You are totally right.  Slow and gradual. Minimal time away from you.  10 days away from you? Not until the child is well into school.  That is an eternity for him and would be sooo traumatizing.  It is work on the away parents part, but parenting is work.  Look up "attachment issues" and visitation.  The baby should not be traveling without you.  Prolonged away time like this would be soooo damaging to your critical attachment to your child.  You baby's "attachment" to his care giver is secure at this point (this is critical for the development of a healthy sense of self, self reliance, resilience and a healthy adulthood). Science backs what your intuition is telling you,  but unless you are careful could become insecure and effect his neurological development and future security within his adult relationships in the future.  I do not understand why your attorney is not helping you understand this and why your attorney is not recommending you file in the home state of the child because the child, the state that the child the child has lived for the last 6 months.  What is happening now?
