    How did you separate ? Was it through the courts and you or he filed on it ( like legal separation ). Were you both still married to each other at the time the baby was born and also under the same roof ? ( reunited ).
    The laws of your state may already give your husband rights to the child as the presumed father.

    I am sorry, what help can you get that you can't get now ?

    But if the bio father will sign over his rights to allow your husband to adopt, then he can adopt the child

    Of course at this point you should have a child custody agreement and a child support order, have you tried to enforce the child support, does the support order require him to provide health insurance?
