baby can mother change her mind? a mother got a temporary court order giving her baby to another family with out the father knowing, then the father finds out and is trying to get custody and the mother has now changed her mind and wants the baby is there any chance that the mother would get custody over the father since she tried to give the baby up?

The mother sounds like she is just trying to tick off the dad. I am not completly sure though. I think the father should take the little cut baby! lol

It would depend upon who the judge sees as the better custodial parent for the child (more stable, better prepared, time available, etc). Certainly the fact that the mother was in the process of trying to give up guardianship of the child, as well as her intentions to keep this from the childs father will play into how the judge sees her behavior. However, I don't think that would necessarily make her a lesser choice for the custodial parent, especially if she shows good reasoning behind her decisions (such as not being able to care for the child properly w/o the fathers voluntary involvement). At the very least, my guess would be that the judge would decide upon joint custody if the mother and father we're both adequately capable.

I think that the father can take sole custody of the baby if he fights for it.

I think that the mother is being very selfish & should let the father have the child. then maybe he could let her visit if she pays child support. however, if the father finds the other family can care for the child, it would be big of him to let go.
