If he's the zygote's father, should she tell @ pregnancy ? Posted: 10-07-07 01:00am


I didn't put this in any of the pregnancy forums because it deals more with the relationship than the pregnancy. One of my best friends found out his girlfriend is knocked up, and considering she has cheated on him more than once, he has reason to believe the zygote may not be his. She had her pregnancy confirmed by a doctor and he asked her numerous times how far along she was, to which her reply was outright refusal to give him this information. Now, unless I am mistaken, don't doctors usually tell the mother how far along she is when she comes in to get tested for pregnancy? She also got very huffy with him when he said he wanted a paternity test done. From what he's told me, there is a chance it could be his, but if it was undoubtedly his, why would she get offended by being asked to get the paternity test done or why would she refuse to tell him the date of conception? My only thought to this would be maybe he'd find out the date of conception and the date they had unprotected sex wouldn't match up... I'm not sure what to think of this; I know I'm probably being overly anxious for my friend, but still. If he is the zygote's father, should he not have a right to know how pregnant the mother is??
