Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts

I need help getting my child support lowered. As of right now, i pay $149 now for child support a week and take home $494 a week. I have our child 3 days a week (Friday afternoon through sunday afternoon/night). My bills are as follows (monthly): rent $550, electric $135, gas heat: $150, cable/internet: $140 and my TV $240 (for a year, i'm about 4 months in). I'm in the process of moving in with my girlfriend (not the mothers child) in a house that the rent is $900 a month because when we have my child i want him to be in a better neighbor hood as the neighborhood i'm in now isn't the greatest.
