Hi im new to this so please bare with me! ... i am 23 weeks preganant with my first child - a baby boy 😊 ... i have decided i would like a double barrel surname of both mine and my boyfriends names. He is very VERY unhappy about this and i dont think his family are too pleased either. We have a rocky relationship to say the least but i am trying to make it work for the baby's sake. AIBU?? i used to think we'd eventually get married but now im not so sure -its my baby just as much as his and i want to feel connected by name as well as everyging else. When i take him to school etc i dont want to be picking up a child who doesnt even have my name?!?! My family are pressuring me to stick to my guns - they cant stand my boyfriend - if they had the choice the baby would have JUST my surname ... i just dont know what to do?!?
