Ok I am married by law but we aren't together haven't been for awhile and the baby I am carrying isn't his and I am not with the sperm donor anymore so my question is what last name do I give my baby???
This child isn't apart of your husband, so definitely don't give it his last name, I would give it yours since you want nothing to do with the babydaddy. && if you and the husband work it out, maybe he'll want to adopt and change the babies last name to his.
@mommaof2now, you have to find out what your state laws are. Some states if you are married the child automatically gets your husbands last name.
I have vpo against this baby's father he is very violent after we split and he has 4 other kids he don't take care of
I would gave the baby the fathers last name because just because things aren't going great with you guys doesnt mean he wont be a good father now or in the future and it still is his child . But if he wants nothing to do with the baby than the last name you plan on using
Depending on your state law. A child that is born while you are married is legally your husband's in the eyes of the court. The only way that is revised is if the sperm donor fights for rights. But I would go with your maiden name
