Okay. I'm in a situation here. I'm
pregnant and had a few questions about
paternity. I had my period Sept 22nd, 07
and had unprotected sex with a friend Oct
4th(i was fertile) I had an EARLY period
Oct 15th, 2007. Lasted normal days. I met
my current boyfriend Oct 17th and slept
with him Oct 20th, 25th, 26th, and 29th .
My due date is July 21st by
Ultrasounds...was july 21st, then july
25th...Doctors and nurses on that lil
pregnancy wheel says conception would take
place Oct 29th. Whose most likely to be
the dad?? I am 20 weeks and 6 days as of
today, March 9th 2008....please help me
understand this!??

i would maybe guess the boyfriend you are
with now?
but a DNA test after birth would tell you
who the father is for sure.
did both guys finish inside you?

Even though you are fertile while you are
having sex, it doesn't necessarily mean
that you are going to conceive. The early
period means nothing.
I don't even know why you are worried
about the previous relationship here. A
period means that you are not pregnant and
the conception date that is being told you
by the doctors even indicates that the guy
you are with is the father. There can be
some deviations with dates, but there is
no way they would deviate more than 2
weeks: ultra sounds are pretty accurate.
If this makes no sense to you, then you
can get a paternity test after the baby is
born, but it is not necessary. I am
positive the guy you are with is the
father, so breathe easy.

can anyone help? Posted: 03-27-08 07:09am
hiya. i hope you can help me
me and my partner split up in october and
i slept with another boy. this was ongoing
for a week. the last time i slept with him
was the 23rd oct and i did a pregnancy
test on the 24th October which was
negative. i then got back with my partner
on the 26th. i had a period from the 27-31
october. i did a pregnancy test around the
6th November which was negative. me and my
partner had been sleeping together
everyday since we got back togther. i then
did a test on the 1st december which was
positive.is there any way the baby could
the be the 1st lads? please get back to
asap. i think i am just being stupid as
if you have a period you are not pregnant,
its just because the dates are close.
thanks

Taking a pregnancy test the day after you
have sex isn't going to work. The egg may
not be fertilized even up to a few days
after, depending on when you ovulate. The
pregnancy hormones build up in your
system, but they are only detectable by a
test after you miss a period, simply
because they aren't strong enough yet.
You have the take the test after you miss
your period. Taking one after a period is
pointless: having a period is like an
automatic negative pregnancy test.
Since you had a period after you had sex
with the "other boy" and didn't have sex
with him after that, then you are not
pregnant from that relationship. It
doesn't matter if the dates are close.
Don't feel stupid either. Sometimes when
you are pregnant and stressed out, it fogs
your mind. It's completely
understandable.
Your baby is your current partners. I
wish you all the best with your pregnancy.
