Most courts use the best interest of the child to determine custody. If the court awarded custody to the father, it determined that living with the father is better for the child than living with the mother. In most states, you can file a new suit to modify custody after the fact. You generally have to wait for a certain period of time after the first award, and you'll need to prove that there has been a sufficient change in circumstances such to warrant changing the prior order. At that point, you would then have to prove that the child's needs would be better served by being moved to the mother's custody.
Custody modifications are difficult, tedious and expensive. If you are serious about this, you need to start talking to a good lawyer.

USUALLY A TRIAL COURT IS WHEN SOMEONE IS TAKEN TO COURT FOR SOME REASON OR ANOTHER. THE APPELLATE COURT IS WHEN YOU WANT TO APPEAL A DECISION THAT WAS MADE BY THE JUDGE
A trial court hears testimony, examines evidence, rules on the admissibility of evidence and objections of trial counsel, issues a judgment on the case, and imposes sentence or penalties/awards. A trial court may also impanel juries and give them instructions for deliberating. An appellate court only reviews the decisions of lower courts, which include trial courts and in some cases lower appellate courts. They do not hear testimony or examine new evidence. They only review the record of the lower court, and may hear oral arguments from the attorneys involved in the appeal. An appellate court may uphold the decision of the trial court, or return the case to the trial court for reconsideration or a new trial.
