Baptism and marriage

[lal]

I am Catholic, attended Catholic school, was raised in the church. I had a baby three weeks ago, but I am not married to her father. We both want to have her baptised. Can she still be baptised if we are not married? Also, her father wants to convert …if he does will the church marry us?

Thanks for any help…

YES you can have the baby baptised:thumbsup:
Even if he does not convert (but wonderful if he does) most parishes will marry you. (I was not a Catholic when I married my Catholic ex-husband and we married in the church full mass with communion etc.)
