If you both have shared custody (which is what 50/50 access is, actually 60/40 is the threshold), then you should pay each other offset child support. That would be a very reasonable offer to make her. Since she is the higher income earner, she would be paying you offset support (not table support) in this arrangement.
The only way you would pay her child support, is if you make the mistake of agreeing to something less than shared custody (or having court decide that against you). That is likely not going to happen, if you stick to your guns (make sure your lawyer sticks to his guns for *you* too).
If you both share custody, then you should likely split extra costs 50/50 as well, or proportionate to your incomes. That is also a very reasonable offer to make her.
