Well, you need to get the issue sorted out before very much time goes by. Dr. Phil had a show in November regarding this issue. Your husband needs to know that another man is the father. This is one of those unpleasant consequences of behavior. If the husband doesn't want to adopt the child, the biological father will owe you child support. You need to get it straightened out now because should you later divorce, it has a good chance of becoming a problem for you and the child.
