Really stressed about a certain situation

Please refrain from judgement cause this is killing me from the inside and there's not a day I don't think about this, I know I can get a dna test however they're very costly and not something I can afford just at this moment in time. Im currently 16 weeks pregnant and I'm really stressed about a certain situation. I know I conceived November 21st
2023. I had a one night stand on the 16th and sex with my boyfriend on the 19th. I'm aware sperm can live up to 5 days however is the baby most likely my boyfriends? I'm almost certain I just came off my period when I had the one night stand. Which guy is most likely I'm so stressed, both guys ejaculated in me. How likely is 5 day old sperm to get me pregnant?

No judgement from me whatsoever- are you sure you conceived on the 21st of November? Sadly the dates are so very close and if you’ve had unprotected sex with both men then it’s a strong possibility that either men could be the father.
Were you tracking ovulation?

Sorry op I’ve just read your other thread where you’ve been given some good responses.
Sadly the only way to know for sure is a DNA test. I know they are expensive but no one online will be able to confirm the father- we can just guess on dates.

5 day old sperm can get you pregnant. You also can’t guarantee when you ovulated. If you're going by dating scans then they can be way out too. It’s a good thing my oh trusts me as I didn’t get to have my first scan until I was 16 weeks, and if the date they gave me was correct then I would have conceived almost 3 weeks before my oh had even come home from working away. You need a paternity for guarantees

Another one for if you are going off dating scans... Don't. If they go from my last menstrual period I should be over a week behind in my pregnancy than the baby has measured the entire time. The same thing happend with my son, he always measured atleast a week ahead from the very first scan so the dates didn't add up. I tracked ovulation too. Im 110% certain of who the father is so I know it can only be my partner and just have to go with the dates given 🤷🏼‍♀️. 5 day old sperm definitely get you pregnant as could have your boyfriends so sadly, even playing the guessing game, you will never truly know until you can afford a DNA test x
