I don’t have personal experience with this situation, but I’ve seen it with plenty of young families. My advice would be to make sure your child is involved in sports, etc, then you can be there half the time getting them to and from, helping with equipment, watching every game, and so on. You’d be a very involved and valued parent.
Don’t let your child become a homebody/loner, and your relationship consist of picking them up for a 2hr duty visit and then returning them home to their mother.
Edit: introduce your child to activities that they enjoy, and make sure that they have every opportunity to experience them
