There was brief relationship that resulted in pregnancy, bio-dad notified during first trimester but did not hear back from him again. Bio-dad has since been traced, but wondered about the legal ramifications of telling absent bio-dad he now has a ten year old daughter? There is no evidence he ever knew. Couple were only on a first name basis.

You said that the father had been sent a message. If he acknowledged that message then the shock of course will be less for him. Of course you don't know what's going on in his life right now which may affect the outcome.

I would assume he already knows op. He must have looked you up in FB to see, even just to ease curiosity and all. Ofc that's a big assumption but I think he knows.

Is the child still with you?

Alll those of you who say don’t rock the boat, my father doesn’t know who his father was because his mother took that secret to the grave. It hurts him all the time and I would also like to know!

The daughter has always been with bio-mum.

Was just attempting to keep within same sort of style I started.

I am bio-mum. This daughter is my daughter, I am her mother.
