[quote=Anonymous][quote]Seems weird to want to have a kid together but not marry. Seems messy. If he won't Marry you, i would suggest not having his kid for him. [/quote]

My husband and I had our first child before we were married and it was done via IVF so not an accident.  We decided based on our age that we didn't want to wait to have a child but we had to resolve some work/immigration issues before we could get married.  Just because they don't want to get married right now does not mean they don't love each other or are not a stable couple.  Marriage is mostly a religious based institution and I am not religious so I wouldn't have cared if I ever got married.  I was happy being with my partner.  I got married because it will make my life easier in the future since I am on a work visa and a green card via marriage is easier than a green card via my company (which they would apply for one on my behalf).  Plus, I wanted to be on my husbands insurance for the next round of IVF since we can't afford another $20K loan for IVF.  So I completely understand why someone does not want to get married to just because of a medical procedure that shouldn't be based on marriage in the first place.  [/quote]
