@Bex3,
I guess I misunderstood the original post. I guess you are now asking about a current child, and not the one you are pregnant with.

I'm currently pregnant ( unplanned)& haven't been with my partner since I have found out!
I don't know what country you are in, but informal agreements (not court sanctioned) are very optimistic considering all the changes that can happen between the birth of a child and its adulthood. Do you think any arrangement you come to at this time is going to be honored in 18 to 21 years from now. I'm going to repeat; you need a lawyer. If nothing else, you said he threatened to take the child out of the country, and yet you do not want to involve the legal system.
What exactly are you asking?
