scared

No, he cannot legally come and take your child. Even if he was on the birth cirtificate if you get full custody it is considered kidnapping he he would take the baby.

also if i were you i'd contact your local police and tell them whats going on. I dont know what kind of neightbor hood you live in but where i'm from they do a pretty good job of keeping an eye on your home if your worried about something. Also it'll make it easier to get restraining orders later.

as far as I understand it if he's not on the the birth certificate then he has to prove (eg. blood test) that he is the father before he can do anything and his family can't do a thing no matter what.

What i would do is document every conversation time and date and what was said .... and then get a lawyer ... what i know of the law round here grandparents cant just get custody of your child .. they would have to prove you were an unfit parent ... but if you are keeping record of threats and anything that would cause you to feel like you and your child are in danger maybe a protection order is in ....welll ... order....

i dont think he can to be honest, if he isnt on the Bc, well then he has no rights over your baby! and niether has his family! you should take alook on the interent! i feel so bad on you! what kind of wierdos are these people! x

I would definately be contacting the police. Maybe you could get a restraining order.

Quoting Bella's Mummy:“ okay me and my babys dad are no longer together anymore im realy scared because his family have been ... [snip!] ... my number everything because of the threats!!i mean he is going to be a dad he should grow up im just realy scared!!!!:-(”

is family can't just up and take your baby. my father's parents took my sister and I and decided they didn't want to give us back to my mother and the police were there in a heartbeat cause it is kidnapping. he has to prove that he is the father then fight for custody if they want to have some custody of the baby. considering they've been threatening you and the father has been out of the picture through the whole pregnancy, you can use that to your advantage. tell them good luck on taking your baby because you can call the cops on them and get them for kidnapping.

Even if you wereto add him he would have to sign the BC because you are not married so if he wont do that then you dont have that to worry about.

I would call your local police and maybe get a restarining order from hiss family. You need to not be freaking out right now, you have to protect your baby!!!

That is scary. I'm sorry that you have to go through that. Make sure that when you do go to the hospital to give birth, you let the nurses or doctors or someone know that these people are not allowed to see you or the baby.

Thats exactly what they are THREATS...he nor his family can show up and take your baby...but that is good advice to alert the police and document the threats

Sweetie all he is trying to do is scare you. I dont know how it works where you live but more than likely he can not take the baby even if you put him on the birth/c. If you are not married there is nothing he can do. They would have to prove you are an unfit mother, which im sure you are not. Dont sweat it sweetie.

restraining order does sound like your best bet at this point

thanks everyone i might just get a restraining order against them cause im realy scared aye i havent told him where im giveing birth im so scared ay :-(

umm yea, there's no way they can just 'take' the baby away from you... that's considered kidnapping. and if they're already threatening you, you should get the police involved.

the only way anyone could take a baby away from you is if you're a horrible parent and don't take proper care of your child, and the father or someone else could prove it...

The family has no rights to your child. If you never want child support or any other support don't put him on the birth certificate. Honestly..sometimes it's easier that way.
