Have you had your son?...or is he unborn?...I know when my mother and father met each other she was pregnant with my older sister. Well needless to say he did not adopt but of course he was put on her BC and her last name was his! So as far as anyone was concerned she was his bio child. I do believe you have to be married. I did not know there was a year limit on marriage in order to adopt your spouse child/children?...You should check on that! It may depend on the state you live in to! Good Luck and I hope everything works out!

I strongly disagree with falsifying birth certificates. Knowing one's DNA has, in the past decade or so, become increasingly important to future health. I imagine this trend will continue as medical technology advances, so that by the time a child born today reaches adulthood, it will be absolutely crucial to good health to know one's biological medical history.
And that's only part of my objection. The other part is that I honestly believe everyone has the right to know who their biological parents are.... whatever they choose to do with that information.
Lastly, if the biological father ever got wind of it, he could demand a DNA test, prove paternity, and then go on to create a world of hurt for the people who did the falsifying... ultimately, the child would suffer.
My suggestion is to do it legally, however long it takes. I think it will be worth it. It's the only way, in this day and age, that you can ever truly be secure.

Well Sharon that was also like 25 years ago! My sister does know her bio father and he knows her...everything is fine now! My mother and her bio father was not together and never intended to be together(not in his eyes)! The man was my mothers first true love in her eyes! Well 25 years ago was different then now! But if the birthfather is not in the picture what is the harm if it is a new born baby...If I was to become pregnant and had a baby but yet in no relationship..I could put whatever last name I wanted on the child! I could put your last name...Who would know and who would care!..It depends on your relatiosnhip, your situation, and the way you feel!..Good Luck!....As you see we dont really know if the baby is born or unborn! That is why I asked...I was not saying to do the same thing. I was just giving a little story that had happen back 25 years ago! I did not say I believed in it or anything! Have a Great Day!:p
