That's funny I am actually going to be giving birth to my first child at New Hanover.  I am due Nov 1st and looking forward to it.  

I know exactly where Hampstead is.  You still live there right?

It's strange to see that 2 ppl use this site and live so close too.

First off GOOD LUCK!!!

Second I live in Wilmington, NC and we have a wonderful hospital down here that isn't a teaching hosipital.  New Hanover Regional Hospital.  There is also tons of other personal medical practices here that he might fit into.

You could also try Greenville, NC which there is ECU East Carolina University teaching hospital.  I know that is a wonderful hospital to work for and know a few ppl who work there and are very happy with there salary.

If you are going to tape anything you need to let it be heard on the tape you telling him that you are taping cause then he can say he didn't know and find something to press charges against you with.

I am so sorry first off that you are having to deal with this, however I may have some insight as to what could happen to you in this sittuation.  Here's my story: My husband and I were approached by his ex wife (they were only separated at that time) and told us she wanted to move from southeastern NC to southeastern PA.  This is 503 miles away from where the children were born and where ALL of their family is, inculding her family.  The reason, she wanted to go shack up with her newest fling.  My step daughter was 4 at the time and my step son just turned 3.  We initially agreed to the move and then began thinking about what would happen to their relationship with their father.  So we decided to fight it.  Well, to make a long story short, she was allowed to take the kids to PA to live permanently with their father having joint visitation.  This gives him 5 wks in the summer, every other thanksgiving until they go back to school, based upon the oldest child's school schedule. Every christmas from the 26th until day b4 school starts, every easter or spring break whichever is longest.  We get to decide and let her know before May 1st when during the summer they will be with us.  She also has to meet us halfway to pick up and drop off the kids.  So this means we meet in southern VA.  

In the state of NC you can fight it all you want but they believe children should stay with their mother, and the mother should be able to do as she pleases.  We did however have a better visitation with it being done by the judge.  We suffered through all of this without a lawyer because we couldn't afford one.  So to put it mildly we got screwed royally.  Could have been a lot worse.  So what I recommend doing is saving all the money you can, document everything you can, and get a Great lawyer in the town next to yours, and taking her butt to court.  Just because you agreed to it before doesn't mean you can't change your mind.  Be prepared though that the likely hood of them making her stay and you even getting primary custody is slim to none.  I'm not trying to discourage you but this is my experience.  Good luck.

do you have visitation with your boys?  or are the courts trying to take you completely out of their lives?  This is a sticky sittuation, I would fire the attorney if i wasn't absolutely sure that she had my kids and my own best interest at heart.  Maybe you should go to a different count and get a lawyer...... something to think about.  Don't settle on a lawyer.  That could be the biggest mistake you  can make in a sittuation like this one.

I am a step mom and do not in anyway feel like my 2 step kids are a bother.  I can't see how your new wife would feel this way especially being a mother herself.  However if you feel that your sittuation isn't the best for your daughter maybe you should let her BM take her back.  I'm sure she would love that.  And as far as never hearing the end of it.... I'd say to put your feelings the back burner for now and make sure you are providing the best environment for you daughter.  Don't get me wrong I am sure you love her but without support from your new wife it sounds like it's not a good environment for her.  I'd also think about how your new wife is acting towards your daughter and decide if you can live with the cold heartedness.  Cause it's probably not going to get any better.
