I'm 27 and I'm 18 weeks pregnant and I live in burns oregon and I'm trying to find some laws into the mother being primary custody of the child before going to court cus I can't afford to get full custody of the baby and I also don't know how to go about it in getting custody of the child and I'm also scared that he will try and kidnapped the baby while I only have primary custody of the child and scared that if he dose that theirs nothing I can do to get the child back cus theirs no court order stating that I have primary or custody and I need help in doing something like before the baby will be hear and how much the custody will cost to get please I need some help or something so I know and stuff
I had my child in Oregon and they made us sign a document saying that we both agree that he is the father. So if you don't sign that and he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he'll have to go through the court to prove paternity.
thanks ashsloan and yea he said once that he he won't pay for shit when I said it cost for court and stuff so I'm not sure but I just want to make sure I have no way of losing the baby
Also if you don't put him on the certificate you won't need custody you are the mom
Don't put his name on the birth certificate. Then he will have to pay for Dna testing and a lawyer and something tells me he probably won't want to do that. Secondly get a legal aid they should see how much you make and depending on that they will help you file for full custody for free or low cost
If he DOSE NOT sign the birth certificate then it's kidnapping !! you are the mother and as long as you are fit they won't give him custody until he files for it and then he will have to prove dna and then if that happened the baby will still be to small to stay away from yoy so you won't have to worry about that untill a year or so
ok he also dosent even live in the same town I do now he moved back to the town he's from but carterclaytonb do u know the law about the baby and the farther and the law for custody
