Nobody has the right to be in the delivery room except the patient and the medical personnel. If you do not want anyone else in the delivery room you should discuss it with your doctor ahead of time and make certain your choice is understood. You should contact the hospital to discuss your choice and submit your instructions in writing if necessary, to be included in your medical file. You should also inform the staff when you arrive for the birth.
When it comes to the birth the mother is the patient and only she can decide who will be in there with her. It is not his legal child until it is delivered and he signs the paternity paperwork. He has no authority on any medical concerns for the child until paternity is established.
Get a lawyer right away!
Yes the bilogical father will get the child .
A baby shower for an unwed mother is very appropriate. She will probably need more help than a married mother would. Be sensitive to the fact that the baby's father may not be in the picture. For instance, a bib that says "I love Daddy" would not be appropriate.
yes they both have to agree on the terns
The focus of a baby shower is on the mother-to-be and her baby. The father or baby-daddy or whatever is generally not present, married or not. Just keep the focus on the right things -- the positive aspects of parenthood and new life. The shower is not a proper time to create any bad feelings or offer any opinions on lifestyle.
That depends heavily on the culture. In the United States, it is common for the father of the baby to be present for the delivery.
H.E.L.L. N.O.!!He Is The Father Of The Baby To Begin With!!He Needs To Be There..I don't think preventing the father from seeing the baby will benefit anyone, especially the baby because it will only lead to the child thinking their father has abandoned them. The life of the child is at stake ok..if anything the father should be there 100%, for he needs to take care of waht he produced because the mother isn't the only one who made the baby and they need to take care of their kid TOGETHER!!
By court order, he can, if he's under a child support order.
His parents pay for him and he pays child support for his baby.
Yes, assuming that the couple are not married. An unmarried mother has sole custodial rights until the biological father establishes paternity and is awarded custodial and/or visitation rights by the court.
Difficult, but yes. In most cases, the state will take the child as single fathers have no assumed parental rights. see link
Yes as long as you feel that your doing what's right for the baby
