Hello all, I am finalizing the I-129F and going to be sending soon however I realized I do not have my birth certificate. I never received it back after applying for my passport years ago. Do I need this in order to submit my application or can I use some other form of ID?

Page 10 of the instructions lists exactly what you have to submit. Instead of a birth certificate, you can include a copy of your US passport if valid for at least 5 years.

Not for I-129F.  You can use a U.S. passport, passport card,  EID, or EDL.
 

For the K-1 visa interview, birth certificate, passport, or passport card.  
 

For I-485, birth certificate. 
 

Fir N-400, birth certificate.

Thank you! Do I need to submit copies of every single page of my passport?

Passport bio page only, for proof of US citizenship.  Plus the pages with passport stamps (if any) from trips with your fiance, for evidence of in-person meeting.
