My answer would be YES!! Chances are, they will find out anyway and coming from you first will make it better for you. Whether or not it affects your custody depends on many things - if this is NOT your first DWI, if the baby was endangered at the time of the DWI - many things. But, better to come clean and deal with it than to try and hide it and pay a greater price later. Just my opinion.

How do you legally make non custodial father legal guardian of minor child?
I'm not sure of the meaning behind this. If you wish to transfer custody, this can easily be accomplished by the two of you seeing a Certified Mediator. The mediator would put together a custody change agreement, and child support modification, for filing with the courts. Each parent must pay half the fees of the mediator. One of the parents than takes these to the Clerk of the Court to file and receive a court date. At the hearing the parents swear to the contents of the documents.
