You are entitled to a recalculation of your child support payments after the birth of your child, but you might be aware that it may make little difference if your average, weekly paycheck has increased substantially.
Call me if you like.

Re: child support paments
I suggest meeting with an attorney before you do anything as Mr. Moore has brought up some valid points. In my opinion, most people (at least initially) pay more than they should because the court does not calculate the child support properly.
