If I'm not with my baby's dad what happens when I need to sign the birth certificate ? Can I put that he's the baby's…

and you cant put him down as the father unless he s there to sign the birth certificate and yes you can still get child support

I don't want too haha thanks girl! @babyace @mommytobe33

@brightsunsett, unless you want to

@brightsunsett, she's right I just looked it up ! The courts will order DNA test and order him to pay so I wouldn't put the name on there

no you don't and you can still get child support without his name on there

Thank you @gillianamy he really doesn't give a fuck about me or my baby lol it's pretty sad. But I'm just happy he gave me this little miracle 💜 I already love her so much.

@brightsunsett, if you need the help go for it :) it sounds like he really doesn't care so I don't see the harm in it.

He doesn't even want the baby lol he has another baby in the way and two other kids already here. So I think if I put him on the certificate he wouldn't do shit. I just wanna be able to file for child support. @gillianamy @jamie_renea03 would yall recommend that I do put him on there? I just don't know what to do

@brightsunsett, without his name on it no you can't. You'd have to get him to take a court ordered DNA test then you could but he'd get rights to the baby

Rights to the baby. Honestly, I wouldn't sign anything for anyone else. If things weren't to work out and his name wasn't on the birth certificate and you were going for child support, he would then have to get a DNA test done if he denies paternity.

If you don't put his name down in order to get his legal parental rights ordered he'd need to go through court and take a DNA test to prove he's biologically the father. Once proved to be the biological father he would then be righted as the legal father.

I wanna know too cause I'm not with my baby's father, if I don't put him on the birth certificate can I still file for child support @gillianamy

He'll have parental rights. Visitation or custody.

@babyace, rights to say what happens in the babys life. Over all its your choice :) it can always be changed at a later date I believe

@gillianamy,

He will have the rights to what? And I'm still with him but I'm just curious lol just cuz I'm annoyed of him right now

yes of course you can. But he'll have rights. Are you on good terms with him? if so then there shouldn't be a problem :)
