Sperm can live in your body for like five days

Afreshstartplease · 20/03/2016 07:41

A pregnancy test a week after sex wouldn't show a pregnancy anyway

I hope you get the result you want, BUT don't take any comfort from the fact the test your first took was negative. It was BOUND to be, even if the baby does turn out to be your ex's. For two reasons, there would not have been enough hormone in your system at that time to register a positive result, and your say you hadn't ovulated. You may have ovulated slightly early and his sperm can survive up to 5 days. The 'conception' date you have is just a rough guide only, it could be days either side. It's too close to call, you will likely need DNA testing.

Oh Looby, this must be really hard. Does your ex have any idea he might be the father. Would be deliberately make things hard for you. Can you get him to do a DNA test first. Although if it does turn out he's the father that makes the conversation with your partner even more difficult.

I know some people might judge, but you were only together a few weeks and your relationship status read probably not exactly clear.

bluebird3 · 20/03/2016 09:11

Don't beat yourself up because you can't do anything to change the past now. I would wait until your baby is born and then have the baby's DNA tested. If it is your partner's baby then no need to say anything. If you find out it's your exs then you will have to decide the best way to tell him. Thanks

No he doesnt know as i actually convinced myself my bf was the dad now its getting near it without a doubt is 50/50 but i still think my bf is the dad...thats my gut feeling! Wat about u guys?

OP posts:
TattieHowkerz · 20/03/2016 10:06

Unless you have short cycles I think it is a little more likely to be your boyfriend's. But you can't be sure until you do DNA testing. I don't see the point in telling your boyfriend until you have a result (unless you need him to cooperate with testing).

DropYourSword · 20/03/2016 11:40

I've never been involved with DNA testing but I'm pretty sure the partner has to actually be involved to give a sample (whether it's blood or saliva).

I think your gut feeling is most probably due to the fact that's who you want the dad to be. Two days is really too close to be able to tell for sure. Some people think once the baby is born they'll be able to tell who the father is by how it looks, but I don't think it's very accurate. It's very easy to convince yourself baby looks like who you want the dad to be (just like when you're trying to conceive it's easy to convince yourself that every little thing is a sign you're pregnant!).

Thing is, you can't do anything about this right now. Concentrate on looking after yourself, have your baby and then figure out the next step. At least it sounds like you will be fair and not just try and pass this baby off as your partners of there's a chance it isn't, that's really not above thing to do and it seems that lots of people do it.

Pinkheart5915 · 20/03/2016 12:02

You are in a pickle.
I think you will need a dna test once baby is here.
Have you told your partner? I would tell your partner it is 50/50 now, it is a big thing to keep from him. If he turns out not to be the dad he will question why you didn't tell him.
You will only need one of the men to do a Dna test, that will give you your answer.

Good luck, and I hope you get the result you want.
