Can you baptize your baby, with only 1 parent catholic?

Can you baptize your baby, with only 1 parent catholic. My fiance and want to baptize our baby. I am Catholic she is not. Will the church allow us to baptize her or does my fiance have to convert to Catholicism first. Inside the church that is.Can you baptize your baby, with only 1 parent catholic?
Yes, a baby can be baptized if only one parent is Catholic, as long as the priest has some assurance that you will actually be raising the child Catholic. Happens all the time.Can you baptize your baby, with only 1 parent catholic?
Yes you can baptize your child. You're fiancee does not necessarily have to become a Catholic. It would make the process easier though. If this is your first child, then you will have to go through classes in order to have her baptized. Congratulations! God bless!
Definitely. Let her be baptized:). The baptism is not about you, it's about the baby. I'm not sure if the mother could be part of the ceremony, though, because when you're there you say that you will help the child grow up in God's way. You probably need to check on that.
