Separated, pregnant from another man, no health insurrance a HOT MESS !!!

I don't know about in your state, but in mine you cannot get divorced while pregnant. They want to pin fatherhood on someone, and the husband of a woman giving birth is always the assumed legal father, regardless of if he's the biologic father here. Hopefully your state doesn't have such stupid rules.

To you and I it seems an outrage but once upon a time family law was written to protect children first. In other words, the indignity done to the father, as a lesser wrong than a child with improper material support.

I understand the view that the child needs being taken care of. And to my view, the biological father should be the one holding the financial responsibility. I really felt sorry for one guy I used to know that got stuck paying support for 18 years for a child that was not his, while his ex wife lived with the actual father of that child. BTW he also didn't have visitation rights or partial custody, because it wasn't his kid. I don't think the courts are that harsh here today, but I believe the no divorce while the wife is pregnant rule still holds. But I believe its to ascertain the paternity of the child after birth now.

If the father sign BC the day the child is born , the ex have nothing to worry about

OP and her kids father seem to have that intention, and they both work, as long as he

stays a stand up guy they will be fine, she just need to be real with mil

I just re read this topic and OMG!!!! Now, I am in a way better situation, I got my dream job  (French teacher in Houston, TX)I am still with the father of my first baby, who is now 4 almost 5, and we had 2 more after... I never heard from my ex-husband after my first baby was born when he served me with the divorce paper...But I got my green card with no problem. I went to the interview I was very pregnant of my second baby, the officer asked who was the father? husband or new relationship? I said new relationship and that was it, she said "you are approved" in February 2016. I just feel like I had to update you guys!!! bye
