Is Pre-birth Paternity Test Safe?
Posted: 10-08-03 13:16pm

My sister is pregnant, and her boyfriend want her to take a prebirth paternity test. Is it safe for both the mother and baby? What is the procedure, and how much does it cost? Please get back to me!

Sad I know that your really in torcher right now. But ask if you can find out. Espiacially if your younger than her. It will be a good way to find out different things. Idea

Thanks for the reply. I would if I could go with her, but i'm going to college in a different state. I'm trying to find ways to still be supportful even though i'm so far away. Besides she wants to make sure its safe before she says yes to her boyfriend. Thanks anyway! Sad

From what i've heard, it is very unsafe to do this procedure while pregnant. If she did not cheat on him and he's just being paranoid, then he needs to chill out. If she ignore this, he'll probably grow up and see that he's being stupid. If she did cheat, it's probably best to wait until after the baby's born anyway. She doesn't need anymore stress.

Good luck

Thanks for the reply. She was worried about how safe it would be for the baby!

Just an update. She told her boyfriend to go to hell. She isn't going to take the test for fear of it hurting the baby! Thanks everyone!
