help i'm expecting.... Jan 31, 2007
hi.
i'm pregnant for 2 months now. as soon as we learned of my situation 2 weeks ago, we started gathering the required certificates to get married in the embassy. we might be lucky to get married by the end of feb. we are both asians.

i'm planning to give birth here, but am afraid of the consequences that might arise, should the government finds out that i got pregnant before the marriage.

what might be the problems when i have to apply for the birth certificate, and eventually for the visa. (my husband-to-be and i are both earning well, so sponsorship issues may not be a problem.) are we going to be prosecuted or tried for getting pregnant out of wedlock?

please enlighten me... thanks!

My friends were in the same situation.
Rather than even take the risk of getting married here (court or embassy) they went to India and got married.
However, because the hospitals may realize baby was conceived early etc (not sure if they see the marriage date) my friends went to someone in India, the land of corruption, and got a court issued license with a prior date.

Fortunately, they were both in India at the same time on holiday according to their passports, so issuing a marriage license with an earlier date wasn't a problem.

Good luck, Happy Parenting and Congratulations! :)

I'm not going to be much help, but have you checked out www.expatmum.com, I think they have a forum as well and because they are more parenting focused, maybe you'll find people that have gone through similar situations.

good luck and congrats :), keep us posted on how things go.

"
why do we have Condom in this world ? to make "Ballon" ? "


Just tell the government that no one can avoid casualties during war and Love. :P


Concord , do we need " Pregenent forum" . Where Choco can distribute
"How to avoid Pregenency " " Free condom guide to Middle east".
