Establishes provisions relating to child support obligations for unborn children

HB 281 establishes that alleged fathers (putative fathers) or confirmed biological fathers may be required to pay child support for an unborn child during pregnancy. The law allows mothers to petition a court within two years of the child's birth to include support payments for the pregnancy months, with payments starting six weeks after conception as determined by the mother's physician. The court sets the payment amount considering the mother's and child's best interests, and payments can be retroactively collected even if paternity is confirmed after birth. This applies only when paternity is established or disputed but resolved, and it does not create new obligations for fathers without confirmed paternity.
