My friend, who was in a Civil Union before gay marriage was legal, had a baby through IVF. This was biologically hers. Her partner, however, had to adopt because although a male partner would automatically be allowed to be named as a parent, a female partner was not. It cost them thousands of dollars for the adoption. I don’t remember how much exactly, but near to $7000. After they married the next baby did not have to be adopted for the wife to be named as a parent.
