I need advice my LG is 6 months old and me and her dad don’t live together however he comes every weekend to visit her which is nice and I’m grateful for however the past couple days now my LG has been unwell and very clingy towards me she has had a high fever and she just hasn’t been herself and her dad is supposed to come today and every time he comes round he always is holding her and never puts her down plus he always wants me to take a picture of him and her which annoys me because there’s a whole lot more to being a parent than taking pictures and showing off on social media and because she’s not well I kinda don’t want him to come over today but I don’t know how to tell him this? Without him getting upset and then have him throw it back in my face a couple of days later which he’s done. Am
I wrong?

Firstly, you shouldn't be grateful because he comes and sees HIS daughter on a weekend. Does he take her out alone? Spend quality time with her and give you a break? Personally, I wouldn't stop him from seeing her today just because she's unwell but I don't think you're wrong either for not wanting any visitors only you know how your child has been and if its going to cause stress, I'd also tell him no pictures today because she's not well

Don’t stop him from seeing her because babies need lots of love and cuddles when they are unwell. Also do you get a break when he comes to see her.
