My ex blocked me, then unblocked me, then blocked me again?

Anonymous
We’re both 26. We broke up in January 2020. He blocked me in May on Instagram. Then I noticed him under my “suggested friends” around October. I didn’t think anything of it. Then I saw he had watched my story on Snapchat about 2 weeks ago, even tho I don’t have him as a friend on Snapchat.

I got annoyed, and changed my privacy settings on Snapchat so he can’t see my stories anymore.

Then a few days ago, since I never use Instagram, I also have my profile on private, I deleted all my photos; even my profile photo. And the same day, he blocked me on Instagram again but didn’t block me on Snapchat.

Why? Why is he doing this? I don’t want him to contact me, but I also can’t block him since we have a kid together; even tho he’s never met his daughter. (These are the directions my lawyer gave me. I can’t block him). But if he doesn’t contact me for a year, we get to charge him with child abandonment. And I get full custody.
