Dads with 50/50 what day of the week do you swap?

In my situation i have 50-50 but the days change and rotate on a 2-2-3 schedule. 2 days with me, 2 days with her and then 3 days with me….. then it alternates on the following week. Not all 50/50 is one week on , one week off

Wow. 1 year and 5 months and I am still lawyering for 50/50. Congrats guys. You give me hope.

Ironcially, Thursday. For reasons.

But it'll change in the fall.

Part of the idea was to have contiguous weekends, but frankly a weekday swap for week on/week off is a pita.

My setup is weird. We did this due to the ex’s extracurricular schedule where she had practices on Tuesday and Thursday. So we do a 1-1-1-1-3 schedule where I have Tuesday and Wednesday night along with every other weekend starting on Friday 3p and going through Monday 3p. While experts said it would be hard on my daughters they seem to like it. That’s all that matter. Funny enough the ex swears now that we didn’t do this due to her schedule. Handoff is at 3 each afternoon so it’s basically 24hr on and off during the workweek.

Monday after school. Can't vote because I'm using Reddit Is Fun.

We switch on wednesdays. I like it. My ex has issues managing our 2 boys so switch days are stressful for her. She wants to move the switch to Sundays, which I get but I like my full weekends, with my boys or without. I wonder if a Friday switch would be better for a full weekend.

Sunday evening like most, parent starting their time shows up at the other location at 6pm.

Every Friday I drop them off in the evening & pick them up early Monday morning

3-4-4-3 schedule with the swap Wednesday. Works well for us with 2 kids under 6

I had 50/50 for about a year and the every other week/7 day rotation worked pretty well. Exchanges happened on Fridays.
