help who's the dad

[lminch1990]

Don' t kknow if im on correct forum bbut on the 8th of march I was 2-3 weeks pregnant on a clearblue digital I slept with one guy the 30th of January got back with my oh and slept with him the 14th of Feb I ccan't remember my lmp who would more likely be the dad to this little one ì got my ovulation dates wrote down for Jan which are between 17th and 22nd that's all I know aany ideas?

The problem with Clear Blue Digital is that it is only an approximation to blood HCG levels. The conception indicator is not necessarily that accurate. You can get a 2-3 weeks and be a few weeks beyond that if for example you had a lot of water and so had very dilute urine. If you read through the leaflet all the 99% accurate stuff on the box only refers to pregnant/ not pregnant rather than the weeks.

If you don't know your cycle dates then really only a scan will give you an accurate picture.

I'm sorry but you can't really rely on clear blue digital at all. I took mine with FMU despite getting a normal positive the night before, I was just curious (I'm in a long term relationship but I still wondered when my baby was 'made') and I read that FMU was more successful with regards to conception dates and hormones etc. Mine said 2 weeks pregnant. Then exactly 3 weeks later I had a scan and I was 8 weeks pregnant so the test was 3 weeks off and as the difference between your partners was only 2 weeks, it's not going to be very accurate for you. I know you said that you can't remember your exact period, but was it any lighter than normal? Maybe implantation bleeding which is what I had too which explains how my dates were wrong as my 'period' wasn't real, it was implantation and I actually conceived a day or 2 prior to this bleed. I think an actual dating scan is gonna be your best bet and the wait until thy is the longest wait ever. Fingers crossed for you :)

Yh i know test can't be reliable it just added up to when I had sex in Feb as i said my period in Jan was at the beginning ovulation dates were 17th and 22nd well inbetween them dates i didn' t think you could still get pregnant 9 days after ov I just wanted to make sure that's all scan booked for 30th :)

I know for sure that I concieved around the end of Jan, and I was getting 2-3 weeks on Clearblue Digi by 14th of Feb, so I would certainly assume it was not at the end of January you concieved.

Only way you can know is a DNA test. Not everyone ovulates 2 weeks before period, sperm can live inside you 7-10 days, pregnancy doesn't always occur at the same point in the cycle for everyone (this is a contributing factor for ectopic pregnancies). Congratulations on the pregnancy but hope you've told oh he may not be father?

I had three really early scans with a private clinic (not baby bond a proper reproduction clinic). At each scan there was a huge difference between six weeks eight and ten (I've a history of miscarriage). If I was you I would go when I would be six weeks if think it's OH and then again at right. I'd tell the sonographer and at a clinic they should be knowledgeable to give you a best guess if when they think you should have conceived or a date range. I know a dna test only way to be sure but hopefully this might put your mind at ease. At six weeks you should just see yolk sack and hopefully a fetal pole (but not everyone sees that till seven I've been told). Whereas if you went that early Nd it was other blokes then I'd expect it to be a bit more of something to see. Good luck xxx

Plus predicted estimates would tell you each time how far along they think fetus is x

I was told by the sonographer that sperm only lives up to 5 days inside of u plus I did a test after the 14th and it was negative She's quite certain she will be able to tell who the father is by the results as 2 weeks in between is enough the determine in a scan I just wanted some reassurance no I haven't told oh until I have scan I dnt wanna worry him for nothing . In pretty sure u don't ovulate just b4 a period or just after I'm pretty sure I had a period beggining of Feb just couldn't rememeber with worry like in that case the sex.on the 30th couldn't of got me pregnant but my scan is on the 30th so fingers crossed :)

Good luck on the 30th. Fc for you.

This is not an accurate way to calculate ovulation because many women do NOT ovulate on the 14th day of their cycle.

americanpregnancy.org/getting-pregnant/ovulation-faq/

The day of ovulation differs from woman to woman and can even be different from month to month for an individual woman. For a woman with a 28 day cycle, the window of ovulation is day 11 through day 21 of your cycle. Ovulation could occur on any one day during this window.

So that's a 10 day window for ovulation alone, add the sperm live times and the fact pregnancy can occur at any point from ovulation to the egg leaving the body... Impossible to calculate without blood tests.

My ovualtion dates that I have wrote down are between dates not just day 14 I know I cnt rely on one day so I do a range of ov dates like i said I'm having my scan the 30th so I will know more then if it's anything after the 6th of January then I know it wasn't guy one as he sperm wouldn't of lived that long :)

Meant 6th of Feb

I hope your scan went well and everything works out for you

Hey I just put another thread on as I couldn't find this had scan yesterday gestational age 8 weeks 2 days I have to take 2 weeks off that don't i so that be 6 weeks 2 days due date 7th November 2016 xx

So, that's mid February? And your OH as the most probable dad? Good news.

If the gestational age on the scan is 8 weeks 2 days the probability isfairly high: it's your oh's. If you take off 2 weeks , it gives an indication of possible conception date. They count the gestational age from the first day of your last monthly period. Only a dna test will be definite but it's looking good. .

Blimey - what a tangled web! Something to be said for that boring old idea of fidelity!

They were on a break!

We weren't together we had been split up for over a month b4 i slept with someone else but then we got back together. Sorry we ain't all perfect like some people ... judgemental or what! ...thank you to everyone else who has actually been helpful x
