Either way, maybe they'll be kind and make it a short interview!
This is how wrapped up in the immigration stuff I am: I was thinking, should I get a note from my doctor saying that David's been to all of the prenatal appts. with me as relationship evidence? (Knowing me, I probably will!)
Also thinking - lucky child! to have both US/Irish/UK citizenship right off the bat!

- and I have to say we have A LOT!

I think by raising the issue and providing all this information regarding your husband being the dad they might only get suspicious as to why you want to prove it to them so badly. But I don't want to cause paranoia now or anything. I just don't think it's an issue at all. You were just ready to have kids when you moved here, that's all. No cocnerns for me there!

Anyway, it is the Albuquerque sub-office; for the record, I'll bet they come right out and ask if it's my husband's baby.

why? she posed the question herself. Doesnt look to me like the question was necessary in the first place.

As for what to bring-either a suitcase for the hospital or the baby. Either way, happy, happy and congratulations dearie!!!

To everyone else - much thanks! We're very excited! (Now on to planning a trip back to Ireland before I can't travel...)

Re: Expecting both baby and interview in July!
I was five months' pregnant when I had my interview so the bump was very visible. I didn't bring along anything to do with the pregnancy at all.
I was asked for birth certificates for any children that we had, (together) so I pointed at my belly and said, 'We're working on it!'
That raised a smile. 
I'm sure you'll be just fine.

Because Buendia, if I calculated this correctly, should have gotten pregnant about 3-4 months after moving to the US, correct?
