Further to this gemora source, here is the Shulchan Aruch reference: - This
is Hilchos Gerus Yoreh Deah Siman 268 Si'if 3:

All the matters of a ger whether making known to him the commandments to
accept them whether the circumcision whether the tevila needs that there be
three kosher men to judge and during the day (Tosphos and the Rosh in perek
Hacholez) and this is davka l'chatchila but bideved if he was circumcised or
immersed before two (or relatives)(hagahos Mordechai), at night, or even if
he was not immersed l'shem gerus except a man immersed for semen emission or
a woman for nidah he is a ger and permitted to a Jewish woman; except for
the kabalas mitzvos [the acceptance of the commandments] that prevents if it
isn't during the day and before three.  And the Rif and the Rambam say even
bideved if he immersed or circumcised before two or at night it prevents and
he is forbidden to a Jewish woman.  But if he married a Jewish woman and had
a child from her we do not invalidate him.
