Hi - I'm looking into setting up a parenting agreement between my current partner and I before the baby arrives. We conceived the baby through IVF but are a romantic couple (but not married) and we live together (moved in after positive pregnancy result, which both of us are very happy about).
Everything is fine, but I would feel more secure agreeing what co-parenting would look like if we did break up - ie basic financial agreement, time, philosophy, etc. I want to make sure we're in a really good spot financially in case something unexpected happens.
I know this sounds slightly crazy, but having been through a painful divorce before, I just want to have something in place that means we're on the same page and that I can rely on if things did go south.
Does anyone have experience with parenting agreements put in place with a partner before any split happens? Exactly like a prenup?
Thank you.
