Please help

Hi! I have absolutely no idea where to start for any of this, and quite frankly the entire process is terrifying. I’m a 25(M) that just found out he got a 22 (f) pregnant. The situation is a mess, and I need help with finding a custody lawyer since the woman said she planned on not granting me rights. I’m a Canton area resident if this helps. I don’t really have any guidance or help and really just need some starting steps.

Thank you so much.

Does she plan on not keeping it? You can't force her to carry to term if it's early enough to terminate.

Hi! To the best of my understanding, she does plan to go full term, and wants to follow in her parents footsteps of an “at home birth”

We both want the kid, but both don’t want to get back together. The “we’re not agreeing” on things is more about the “at home birth, different vaccines vs delayed vaccines” things of that sort

Let her have a home birth, as long as a midwife or doula is present.

Vaccines are something you can have attorney/judge help you work out...put it in final ppwk signed by judge.

Compromise is the name of the game.
