which one is the father

Thank you so so much
I'll follow your advice

Hello lalnunmawaii,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community and for becoming a member! This is a great site for finding the answers to your most perplexing questions!

First, I am guessing that you are pregnant! Congratulations! Have you taken a pregnancy test or been to the doctor? Are you taking prenatal vitamins?

If I were to say which one is the father of your baby, then I would just be guessing. Since you haven't had your period in 8 weeks, it's likely that your boyfriend is the father. Have you calculated your ovulation cycle to see when you ovulated last? When I was trying to conceive my children, I used this site to find out when I was most fertile. I was able to pinpoint the EXACT day I got pregnant. Give it a try...

If you want to know for certain you could take a test to find out. Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP): A non-invasive prenatal paternity test is the most accurate non-invasive way to establish paternity before the baby is born. The process is state-of-the-art, combining the latest technology and proprietary methods of preserving and analyzing the baby’s DNA found naturally in the mother’s bloodstream. This test requires only a simple blood collection from the mother and alleged father and can be performed any time after the 8th week of pregnancy. The test is 99.9% accurate.

You can also wait until after the baby is born for a paternity test. Does this answer your question?

Please let me know if you figured out your ovulation cycle and if that rules out the other man. Also, do you think you'll get a prenatal paternity test? Does your boyfriend know that you are pregnant?

Congratulations and enjoy your pregnancy!

Best,

Kristin
