A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Heya,

Well basicly i'm in a very happy and loving relationship to my fiance. I have a child from a previous relationship whome he regards as his son, and we i'm 5 months pregnant with our second child.

As I said, my fiance adores our one year old son even though he isn't biologicaly his. We've recently discussed adoption and he is very keen to do this. I looked online how we go about this but found lots of conflicting infomation... One site indicated we may have to be married before the adoption could take place. Also it seems likely that the childs biological father may have to sign agreement to the adoption as he is on the birth certificate - this would be a problem as soon after he signed the birth certifcate he decided he didn't want to be a father and we havn't heard from him since. He expressed he never wanted to hear from us again. I have no address - only a phone number but as i said we aren't in contact.

So does this mean we can't go through the adoption? and would we have to be married? as i said i have looked online but found lots of sites saying lots of different things...

Would be very greatful if anyone could help. Thanks x

You're going to get a lot of different information on here too (assuming people reply). My advice would be to talk to a solicitor and see what they say. Then you know all the facts.
