Fulton Co Birth Certificate for Home Birth

[DomerJen]

I posted a couple of years ago about getting a birth certificate and got great advice for Cobb Co.  Now we're in Fulton, and I called them to request a HB packet.  Their line is always busy so I tried their email.  They replied and said there was NO packet.  I should just write a request after the baby is born and send in a copy of my driver's license and $25 money order.

This can NOT be correct.  I had a packet full of stuff an inch thick in Cobb! 

Does anyone know what the rules are in Fulton?  Should I just keep calling until I talk to someone knowledgeable?  I called months ago and the lady said they would not send a packet out until after a birth, so I'm pretty sure there is something.  We're moving to PA 12 days after my EDD... I don't have time to screw this up!  I don't want to wait to get the packet until after baby is here, either.

Ugh, why is this so hard???

Thanks!

Perhaps this will help?

Good luck with your birth and move.  That's a lot to do all at once!

Thanks, I recognize a few of those documents!  Hopefully we can just bring down more than they need and it won't be a difficult process. :)
