Am I the Father? Posted: 01-11-07 14:44pm
O.K... I was with a girl for about a
year...We broke up and she got with
another guy...8 months later, she came
back for a few days which was aug.
29-31...We were back together and we had
sex on the 29th but after a few days we
realized we didn't want to be together...A
few weeks later she ends up pregnant...The
doc originally gave her a due date of may
22 which brings conception to the
29th...The due date then got switched
after a month or two to may 20th...She
acts convinced that since the due date was
moved up two days that the baby isn't mine
for sure and she won't talk to me or
anything...She says she will not take a
paternity test because she don't need
to..Her doc has assured her who the father
is and that the dates are exact..Im not
dumb and i'm pretty sure dates aren't
exact and a test should be taken...So my
questions are....Is there a good chance
the baby is mine???....Is there any way to
get a paternity test without breaking my
wallet???...And what in the world should I
do here?? I wanna be a good dad if the
boy is mine but I just don't know what I
can do..

Because she proberly splet with both of
you at around the same time it is a pretty
even chance. Fertilisation doesn't take
place on the same day you have sex sperm
can live inside the body for up to 5 days
I think. You can either trust her and
believe it is your child or pay for a
paternity test to find out for sure it
will cost money but for the truth it's a
small price to pay

Nobody can tell you for sure if you are
the father or not. Only way to know for
sure is to get a dna test

It may not be the way you want to go, but
if she's already saying she won't
willingly do a paternity test, then .I'm
pretty sure you can take her to court
&have it court ordered so she has no
choice. If they originally said the day
of conception was around the 29th,
&that's the first time you two had sex
in a while, .I don't think it would be
yours. Conception takes sometimes up to
10 days. &.Especially if her due date
was moved a few days earlier, that would
make conception even earlier. Dates
aren't always right, though. So a test is
the only way to be 100% sure.

You can petition for a dna test. She
can't stop that from happening. Contact
your local family court once the child is
born. If you're proven to be the father,
child support and visitation will (or
should, anyway) be arranged.
