I would expect a judge to award 50/50 custody to the father, if he wanted it. Gone are the days were the mother automatically received primary custody, and the dad received every other weekend. Frankly, she should have expected this.
She was not expecting it because it is not the norm for a baby at that age
Forget your anon? Hmm.

Nope just commenting. 50/50 for a 3 week old baby is not the norm

Do you live under a rock? Do you honestly think it is the norm for custody to be 50/50 from just after birth?

It isnt good for a baby to be passed around like a hot potato

The only thing that matters is what's fair for the baby. Babies need consistency and security instead of being bounced back and forth between homes and parents.

How would you know she wasn’t expecting it? Do either of them work? Unless they are both home full time someone else is watching the baby.

That's the way it should be unless one parent is unfit.

The baby will be fine. They are going every other week between two people, not a new person everyday. Lots of babies go to daycare and go between the center and their home and are all fine.
