Ok so long story. I was with my ex girlfriend for 3 years. She met a girl and fell in love. Left me. She is now 18 weeks pregnant and is being difficult. I was allowed to the 12 week scan. But her mum has told me she is planning on leaving me off the birth certificate. I have a feeling she is not going to allow meaccess
Hi there,
I think realistically you are going to have to wait until the baby is born and see what happens. Just try and remain calm and continue to offer support to the expectant mother, don't try and push her too much at this stage but show her that you want to take your role as a father seriously and hope that she comes round.
If the situation remains unchanged after the baby arrives, you can apply to the court for Parental Responsibility, but I would advise that you try mediation first.
i here,
I agree with NJ, your ex's emotions will be all over the place at the moment, so she may be acting on emotions and not thinking straight, you may be right and she may be trying to push you out but stick with it. Stay calm and be suportive there is no reason that the 3 of you can't raise the child together (apart but together :whistle: )
As said stay supportive and make sure she knows you are serious about being a dad.
