This one. The child will be British by descent.

Were you naturalised as a British citizen? And if not, were you born in the UK? If either of these apply, your child will be born British and you can apply for a British passport directly.
If you were born outside the UK, your child will not be automatically British if born outside the UK. But you may be able to register your child as a British citizen.
