Tough choice but being a dad is great and will give you a new perspective on life
This is the only advice you need to listen to. You are going to be a Dad and your own wants/desires do not come first anymore. You need to do what is right for your child. And that would be finding a job close to home, preferably one that doesn't take you away too much. You should not even be considering taking a flying job in another part of the world. Believe me, it will not make you happy to be flying a 737 or anything else for that matter if you haven't seen your child in 3 weeks. All you will care about is getting home. As it should be.
