Me and my wife are going to have our first baby this year. We're currently looking for a donor on one of those donor sites (with a mind to be careful) so we'd welcome any advice on that but right now we're trying to get our heads around legal stuff like parental responsibility. We're in a civil partnership so I know I will become the second parent on the birth certificate. That's fine, I can get my head around that. My worry is parental responsibility. As far as I'm aware, because we're in a civil partnership I have parental responsibility and the donor will have none.
Does anyone know for sure? I need to find a solicitor, but I live in Wales and our solicitors mostly deal in stuff relating to the countryside. I found one but in a town an hour away so getting an appointment has been difficult (we don't drive).
Any ideas? I didn't really know where else to go.
