Hello,
Sorry this might seem a bit trivial..
When you have your baby, is it the case that the hospital use the mother's surname? I am divorced (4yrs) but kept my ex's surname for various reasons but don't intend to get married any time soon to my DP (with whom I'm having a baby in Oct). Freaking out now that my baby will start it's life with my ex's name and considering deed poll name change... Am I being ridiculous.. will the hosp let us use his surname??

It says "male/female infant of mothers name" and the date and time of the birth.
