**Trigger Sexual Assault**

[Samanthairis]

Very new here, does any body know anything reliable about Dna sampling the paternity of an unborn baby? I have been with my husband for more than a decade, and has trouble conceiving the children we have. Unfortunately I was raped, and there's not a large enough gap between this and my husband for me to be certain.

I'm hoping someone has some advice.
Thanks in advance x

I have no advice about the DNA. Can you speak to your midwife? I'm so sorry that happened to you.

I would perhaps talk to your nearest Sexual Health Clinic they can signpost you to the right people.

I'm so sorry for what's happened to you. Sending you strength 🌺

Sorry youre going through this.
There are blood tests you can do that are over 99% accurate, its called the NIPP but im not sure what it stands for, but it doesn't risk the pregnancy at all

As Space says, you can do a NIPPT. There are private companies that do it but they come at quite a cost - https://www.affinitydna.co.uk/prenatal-paternity-test/

I am so sorry
