[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does a lesbian married couple have to do second parent adoption? I thought in DC both moms can be on the birth certificate. [/quote] That’s with an anon donor. [/quote] How would the DC government know whether the donor was anon or not? It’s not registered anywhere. Also the known donor would have signed away all rights and custody. [/quote] In DC, the known donor does nothing at all. There is a six month waiting period after the baby is born, then you go to court. That's pretty much it. We did it twice. However, different states have different rules. We lived in Montgomery County when our second son was born - had we done the adoption through Montgomery County, our known donor would have needed to sign documents and we would have had to go through a home visit. Because DS #2 was born in DC, I was able to adopt in DC and avoid all of that. [/quote]
