the Earliest You Can Tell Who the Father Is Posted: 02-18-04 17:32pm
My gf is now nearly 3 weeks late and is
about to have a pregnacy test, as she was
with someone just after her last period
before she met me it has thrown up a
dilema as if she is pregnant it could be 1
of 2 people, my question is:
how soon can you tell who the father of
the child would be as she does not want it
if it is not mine, or does it mean that we
would have to wait beyond the time in
which she could have it aborted before we
can establish who the father is.
Any help on this would be great.

If you have an amnio done you can find out
who the father is by dna, but there are
risks that go along with it and it is not
really worth it. I would wait, and the
doctors dont like to do amnio's unless
they are necessary.

the Amnio Is Bad!!! Posted: 02-18-04 21:29pm
Hey, I am heather and I just want to say a
little about that amnio. She is very
right, it is very dangerous! First of
all they have to stick a long needle
through the belly button and into the
uterus. That causes a hole and could
cause leaking. A miscarriage occurs
often. Was she with you a lot and only
with this one guy once? The reason I ask
is because if so the possibilities of it
being yours are much much higher. Then
look back at the time frame. If she is 3
weeks late she could be anywhere from3
weeks to all the way after her last
period. If the baby was not yours, why
not just do the adoption thing? You
really don't want to hurt the baby if it
is yours, so I suggest just wait until the
baby is born, then afterwards have the
test and if wrong, try adoption.
