| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/17/2009 8:27:53 PM | I got to meet my boy, I got to meet my boy, hi -ho-a-daddy-o, I got to meet my boy!!!
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!!!
So if there 'was' ever a shadow of a doubt that he was not mine, meeting and seeing and holding him today pretty much sealed the deal.
It was like looking in the mirror. He like identical to how i did when i was his age. He has so many features of mine, it is awesome!
I can't wait to see him again. I am hoping that I can see him at court next Monday. If not then we have at least agreed that I can see him again on the 31st.
I also gave the ex (well the intake worker to pass on to the ex) two months child support today as well.
So much energy now, I don't know what to do?! I feel like bouncing off of walls!
But for the thirteenth time for those who are going to keep bring this up, no matter what, a Paternity test is going to be done. I have just had to wait for a court order in order to do it. So it should be done within the next two weeks. Just to cross the 'T's' and dot the 'i's'!
Unfortunately the service provider would not allow for any pictures to be taken of my son and I until we go through court for some reason. Grrrrrrrrr But they did ask that my ex take plenty of pictures of him for me to have so that I don’t miss out on too much. | |

| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/27/2009 12:51:47 PM | So I had my first court appearance today in hopes to have a case conference scheduled and an interim access order done up allowing for more frequent visits.
The judge decided that due to how young my son is that he was not comfortable allowing this matter to go before the courts at this point in time.
He said that for the time being he would like us to continue with mediation to try to come to an agreement together.
So, for the time being I am only allowed 1 two hour supervised visit every two weeks.
To top things off, I went to speak with the mediator right after court to see what can be done with things to move ahead, at which point she advised me that at the end of this week, she is off for three weeks, so there is not to be any change for our next court appearance which is the end of next month. So it looks like I will be able to see him for three more visits before the next court date. If we have to go to a case conference it looks like no decision will be made until late October early November.
***SINCE LAST UPDATE, PATERNITY HAS BEEN CONFIRMED THAT I AM INDEED 100% THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER*** | |

| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/27/2009 3:11:13 PM | | I'm so glad you are the dad, but I am heart broken over how slowly the court is moving on this. You need a better lawyer, this needs to go all the way to the supreme court, to get a landmark decision so men can have a decent shot of being with their own children. | |
|
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/27/2009 4:43:51 PM | OP...so happy that you are indeed the dad.
however, not fair that you dont get much time with your son at this time.
you do need a lawyer who will get you more visits and why do you need supervised visits?
you are missing out on your sons everyday life by having limited visits. | |
|
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/28/2009 4:09:40 PM | CONGRATULATIONS!!!
just caught up with what ive missed, and im so glad that things have turned out well with the visitation and dna testing!!
hopefully when the mediator gets back to wrok, things can be settled further!!

| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/31/2009 1:26:43 AM | OP...very glad that you can see and take pictures of your son.
Patience is a virtue and hopefully as weeks go by you will get unsupervised frequent visits with him.
Just have to focus on the positive and enjoy and love him. | |
|
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 7/31/2009 8:20:02 AM | Okay this may not be the situation at all but it sounds to me like in the beginning she may have cheated on you and THEN found out she was pregnant and maybe she was going to have an abortion because she wasn't aware of who the father was. I mean what else could her reasons be for TRYING to get pregnant and then thinking about aborting the pregnancy? I have assumptions as to why she didn't maybe she just had a change of heart but didn't want to tell you because she's still unsure of who the father is? ALTHOUGH if she got pregnant last september with your child, she was have given birth in June sometime.... For her to be 7 and a half months pregnant now she would have gotten pregnant in January of this year. So maybe she did have an abortion because this is a whole different child than the one concieved in September of last year. | |
|
| |
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 8/1/2009 6:11:03 PM | | As soon as she gives birth YOU have the right to go to the court house and request a visitation order to see your son. This will also result in a child support case. Good luck! | |

The judge decided that due to how young my son is that he was not comfortable allowing this matter to go before the courts at this point in time. OK, I am having a hard time comprehending this one..Are you saying that the judge felt your child was too young to order longer visits so he just decided you'd get to see the baby 2 times a week? When I first read it it kind of sounded like the judge was saying he didn't want to have this case in court at this time due to the child's age..But then you said u get the two supervised visits. Are they supervised by your ex? I am glad you took the visits the court ordered, albeit it is not the ideal situation for you but it is in your son's best interest otherwise the judge wouldn't have ordered it. Some men have a hissy fit when they don't get what they want in court. Just keep continuing those supervised visits, if you don't do them you will never get unsupervised visits. Not saying I think you won't do them, I am sure you will. Just be careful not to miss any of them so she can't use that against you. | |

| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 8/16/2009 4:22:56 PM | I have tears in my eyes. That was beautiful, thank-you for sharing.
It's so unfair that you get so little time with your own child. | |
|
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 8/16/2009 5:26:47 PM | I got to meet my boy, I got to meet my boy, hi -ho-a-daddy-o, I got to meet my boy!!!
I've come in late to this thread. I've read the last couple of pages. Your detailed visit report has me choked up. Congratulations on your new bundle of joy. I hope the mediation goes well.  | |
|
| PLANNED PREGNANCY GONE........???? Posted: 8/16/2009 5:33:58 PM | Congratulations!!!
All else I can say is go for at least 50% custody since you'll be paying child support and for the fact that you want this child. No parent (father) should be kept from a child if they want to participate in raising it(unless abusive of course).
My roommate has 50% custody of his son and I helped him get it. I cannot believe how people behave (mother and her family) when the father wants so badly to be in his child's life and does everything in his power to do so. I've already sat through 2 visits from child protective services as well as witnessing the tripe put in the summons for custody. Fortunately, dedication to the child in my household stands up to the challenges.
I hope to God that your baby's mother and grandparents respect your rights towards and feelings for this child. For as many fathers who run from their children and that responsibility, everything possible must be done to see that those fathers who want their children be given equal rights as the mother.
Good luck my dear, you will need all your wits and any support you can get from friends and family to get through this. I wish you the best!!! | |

I imagine you will make a wonderful father and a much better woman.
I fixed this quote. Seriously, in the nicest way possible, you have some deep seeded emotional issues. If you act this much like a women in real life, it is no wonder she left you. Just be happy she wanted to your kid at all, I would have elected to go to the sperm bank, or find some random attractive guy who possesses all of the features needed in a man. I really hope you elect to go to counseling for yourself, because otherwise you will be nothing but destructive to this child. And finally, I have serious questions and concerns as to why you seek validation for all of this from strangers on an online dating website. Perhaps mommy didnt hold you enough as a child, and daddy wasnt there? I do not know, but get help... seriously .
So true I agree. I feel sorry for the poor woman who got impregnated by you. But she must have serious issues to have an out of wedlock child with a 5'3 midget fem man. I bet you wish you had tits so you could breast feed it. She should of had the abortion, now she will have to deal with a wierd obssessive stalker fem midget baby daddy for the next 18 years. | |
