During my peak of 3rd semester pregnancy I stop going to my doctors appointments. When it was time to have my baby I had him naturally by myself in my bathtub because I wanted to experience a water birth with no doctors or meds. What is the procedure in getting a birth certificate and social for my child. And will I get into trouble? He's a healthy 4 month old baby boy. There was no complications or nothing.

You've done nothing illegal but will probably have some "red tape" to go though now. I suggest calling your doctor and ask them. They will probably refer you to a hospital where they do that sort of thing. You can also call your local community registrar's office and ask them. Be up front with them and just tell them you had the baby on your own they might freak out but so what.
Red tape?
