If your ex suddenly demanded a DNA test would you feel a little (or a LOT!) anxious about it, even if you were a 100% sure?
I never had a doubt before, as there were no other men involved, but now he's asked for a test I'm suddenly PETRIFIED, what if the results are wrong (though I know they're 99% accurate, what if? Shock!!!
Put yourself in MY shoes, how would YOU feel, honestly?!xx

exactly the same! it's funny how our minds work isn't it, used to have nightmares that my baby wouldn't look anything like dp and he wouldn't believe she was his, even though there was no-one else! put it down to being a hormonal crazy mom and rest assured that unlike so many charming women you see on chat shows at least there is no other possibility!

Hi Hazelo,

Been there and done!!!

My dd's dad didn't want to know from being 4 months pregnant and nor did he tell his family about dd.

When she was 14 months old, i recieved a phonecall from his parents demanding that they see there grandaughterShock

I had a new life and was with my current dp from 5 months preg, i asked how they found out and one of their neighbours kids ahd let it slip.

They got involved and it was obvious she was his daughter as spitting image, eventually he wanted to see her, and after 4 months of seeing her, he proclaimed she wasn't his, and paid for a DNA all because i enquired about maintenence.

I began to doubt things like yourself, even though there was no other possible father!!!

So i know how you feel and just bear in mind that the one to look stupid will be the father!!!!!!

Good luck

Butty.xxx

I know I'm being daft but I won't be happy until we've both got the results in black and white! (Pinktulips- can I still blame things on my 'hormones'? ds is 2 now, thought I had to stop doing that by the time he was 1 ...great if I can, though!!!)xx
