If the baby's father changes his mind & decides not to marry you, then you cannot immigrate. However, you should be entitled to child support under CA law. I suggest speaking with a CA Family Law Attorney if that occurs.

If you marry the child's father, it depends on whether or not you are eligible to adjust status (did you enter legally, with a visa or visa waiver?). If not, it's far more complicated, & I suggest speaking with an experienced Immigration Attorney to discuss provisional waivers, consular processing, & other issues you may face in the immigration process. Feel free to email me if you have any questions.

Good luck!
