How Can Paternity Of An Unborn Child Be Confirmed?
I had sex with my ex bf in the month of September. At the end of September I got back with my now bf. I ve been having sex with my bf from the last 2 weeks of September and currently. I had a period on October 2-7. I found out I was pregnant in November. I went to the dr. To see how far a long I was at the time and they told me 8 weeks. That matched up with my now bf. Is there anyway my baby s dad could be my ex bf.

Hello,
Since, you had your period on October 2nd, you must have likely conceived in the middle of October. If you had sex only with your current boyfriend on the month of October, then he is the father of your child.
If you want to confirm paternity before birth, then amniotic fluid DNA analysis can be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal
