Best Answer

No. Once the child is born to an unmarried couple, paternity needs to be established before a child support petition can be filed. It can be the voluntary acceptance of the male involved or in disputed cases a paternity test (usually DNA rather than a blood test) must be done.

No, and it can be increased due to the additional medical expenses. see links below

A bit more:

You need to check with an attorney in your state, but it may be possible to have the court order the father of the unborn child to pay medical expenses related to the pregnancy, as well as paying child support once the baby is born.

Does a father still have to pay child support if his child quits high school in Indiana?

The father of the unborn child is obligated to pay child support once parentage is established through the voluntary acknowledgement of the male or by an order of the court. The father of the pregnant daughter has no legal obligation to support her child, but does have a legal obligation to support her until she reaches the age of majority for the state in which she resides or the terms of a standing child support order are completed, amended or rescinded.
