Hi everyone. Newbie here.
Me and my fiancé (both women) are expecting our first baby in January. Prior to conception I read that as long as we are married my girlfriend/fiancé will automatically be on the birth certificate.
However, reading some information telling me that we would have had to have been married at the time of conception! We did not know about this as thougjt we would be ok as long as we were married prior to baby arriving.
My fiancé is very upset, understandably, and we're a bit confused. Does anyone have any more information/correct information? We would prefer not going tge adoption route, but will if we have to. So frustrating. Any thoughts/experiences?
