It can be shared custody or one get it. The court wants the children to have access to both parents. The affair will not be the thing that decides custody.
If you are a father. You must prove the mother unfit, drugs, abuse, prison record, etc... IF you are a mother, depending on the state you live in they would allow soul custody because you are the mother. If the father is unfit and you live in Utah and/or California where they are for the father as well and want to do joint custody in most of those two states, the father must pretty much be unfit such as abuse, drugs and/or prison record for the mother to get full custody. That is pretty much when the only time I have known any parent to get full custody of their children.
When the mother and father share the decision making when it comes to the children is called a joint custody. In this set up, both parents can have access to the records of the child or children and can live with one or the other according custody schedule ordered by the court.
Except in Arizona, the mother has sole custody and the father has to apply for his rights through the courts.
If your husband has full custody of the children then you do not have to inform him you are moving out of State. However, it's very callous of a mother not to inform her ex where she is going so at least he can contact her if there should be a health emergency with one of the children and your children consider you their mother and will not understand why their mother left them. You may not care about leaving your children behind, but life catches up to you and you will care one day and it will be too late to make amends.
The courts can rule either way and it depends on the gay laws in your State. Some courts may still grant the mother full custody if they feel the environment is safe for the children and many courts prefer the children to be with their mother. It is worth it to fight this in court, but for the sake of the children you should go for joint custody. Children only see their 'mom and dad' and know little else. To be taken away completely from one parent is extremely traumatic for children.
Of course not. It is inside a woman's body. No one apart from the mother can obtain "custody" of a fetus. Custody battles must wait until the child has been born.Of course not.

you get it for her.
If you were not married when the child was born you have to prove paternity in court by a DNA test and if she refuses you can get a court ordered one. Then you can petition for custody, visitation and pay child support. Unless the mother is unfit they will not give you full custody though.
YES. It is rare for a mother to not have custody of her own children. By default, mothers always have custody, unless something terrible has happened. In this case... twice. She might be the playing kind, but definitely not the marrying king.

In order to get interim custody, you will need to petition the court. When children live with one parent, and the other has visitation, but there is no order in place, the parent whom the children live with has what is called defacto custody.
