Default Citizenship by decent

Hi ya

I am a british citizen by decent as both my parents are from the uk and i was born in nz.
I went to the uk in 2005 and left in 2011 as i was pregnant and had my son in australia
Roll on 4 years, i broke up with his father and am now together with a wonderful englishman.
We are talking about going back to the uk to live. Ive researched a bit and i dont pass on my citizenship to my son automatically because mine is from decent.
I am now confused as to how i can get it for him as i read on a post here that i can register him if ive spent 3yrs in england which i have but its unclear when i had to have spent that 3yrs there as i left 2011 and now its 2015
Can someone help at all?
Thank you

I believe you are correct - living in the UK for three years before a child of yours is born, enables you to pass on British citizenship to your children.

BTW being of British stock, you are, quite naturally a decent person, ..... but you are British by descent.

I am closing this thread as the OP has a duplicate thread in the immigration forum.
