I’m going to go for paternity testing and considering that I only slept with one person, I know who the father is. But what if a drunk or stupid person is working at the lab when I and the father go for testing?

My husband was working in a different state for a while and in that time he had an affair. It was a one time incident and they used a condom but she is now pregnant. When I calculated her conception date and vicinity online, in that time period she was in a completely different state than him.

Unless her doctors possibly derived the due date wrong, which I know sometimes can happen, is there anyway that my husband could obtain a court ordered prenatal paternity test or are we going to have to wait until this baby is born before we know if he is actually the father?

Thank you in advance for any helpful advice.

I took a legal DNA Paternity test about four years ago. The test was considered a legal DNA test that was not court ordered. I went to a laboratory, showed proof of identity and let the technician collect the DNA sample.

The results came back negative, excluding me as the father. Now the mother wants me to take it again. Can I be made to take another Paternity Test by the courts?

Thank you in advance for any advice.

My friend had a baby, now the dad is denying that he is the father. He wants to take a DNA test to prove he’s not the father, and they’ve decided to use the Identigene one from walgreens.

Has anyone here used it and got accurate results? If you did use it, was it even a good test?

First off I have learned my lesson the hard way. I don’t know who my child’s father is. I’m trying to get paternity established because I’m not the only one responsible for the child. I have notified all the “alleged” fathers and all except one is willing to do a paternity test.

The one who refuses to do it is the one the child looks exactly like. I had broke up with him because I found out he was married. I didn’t know I was pregnant at the time. I informed him and the “alleged” fathers that I was pregnant and wanted a paternity test done.

I’ve got all the information on all of them including the married one.The married one got divorced and remarried 30 days after divorce was final. I told him I filed for paternity and child support. He said the child isn’t his.

I have made attempts for him to see the child and he hasn’t been around for the attempts. How should I deal with him if he is the father of my child?
He has two other children 18 and 16 but has little involvement with them.

A friend of mine took a DNA paternity test though the District attorneys office approved testing lab and the test came back that the father was not the father. She says she was a virgin when she got pregnant.

I have recently had a “non-invasive prenatal paternity test” but I am not entirely convinced that it is reliable.

At first I thought it would be ok but now I am not so sure, after reading up on the internet about it all I am just not entirely confident in the result.

I think my last period was the 12th july and when I went for a dating ultrasound scan (in october) they said I was 13 weeks 6 days which made conception around the 28th july giving me a due date of 19th april… that would tie in with my period date.

That was when I was with my new boyfriend. We wanted a DNA test because on the 19th july (before me and my current boyfriend got together), I was with someone else (my ex), so we wanted to be sure.

The “lab” says they do the test using maternal blood because there is fetal DNA that has passed through the placenta circulating in it, so I had my blood taken and sent it in along with a cheek swab from my boyfriend.

I was quite confident that the test would come back saying he is the father, but it hasn’t, and it doesn’t seem right, I have questioned the lab about the accuracy and they said if I send in a swab from the other alleged father they’d have a better picture to look at….. (this would also cost more money).

I asked another lab their opinion and they said they don’t offer the test because they dont think it is reliable, and I have read some reports on this kind of testing and since found out its not that good, I just wondered if anyone has any knowledge on this.

I have read that most labs won’t do it because there has been reports of inaccurate results, but the company I used are confident that their results are conclusive, but I’ve also noticed they are not AABB accredited. The labs that only offer amnio or cvs all are accredited.

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

My girlfriend is pregnant. I think the doubt is quite small, but naturally 95% certainly isn’t enough with this. Hundreds of DNA companies pop up on Google when you type in ‘dna paternity home test’ but can you assume these are legitimate?

Has anyone used any of them and can recommend? No I don’t want to call my doctor’s office for this, that defeats the purpose of using a home test kit.

I have a friend whose girlfriend is pregnant. And I am just wondering what the normal fee for a prenatal paternity test is or if the hospital will do it for free? Thank you for your answers.

I have been married for about four years and recently discovered by using a home paternity test that my year and a half old daughter is not actually mine. My wife confessed that she had been with another man at approximately the apparent time of conception.

We have decided to stay married, but I would like the alleged father to take a paternity test to validate this and make sure my daughter knows her real father. But the alleged individual will not take a DNA test willingly.

Can I have the courts decide paternity? And since we are still married, can he be forced to pay child support?

Thank you in advance for any help and advice.

I would like to know what paternity testing involves, how long the results take to find out, and the approximate cost.

I am being sued for child support from a year past relationship, and was wondering where would I have to go or who do I call to set up a paternity test.

My family and I want a paternity test to be performed but we all live in different countries.

We want an official, government test (at a hospital) who can then issue a certificate of paternity robablility rather than a home test.

Can collect the samples at our diferent locations and send them in to the test centre, or do we have to be there in person?

Alos, I understand that the result will be more accurate with the mother’s DNA as well?

Cheers

Would a doctor have to do it? And how much does it usually cost? Any information is appreciated!

Also, I read that they could do this test with the mother’s blood instead of inserting a long needle into her belly.

Is this true? If so, is it less expensive?

I’ve been reading a lot about it and for my situation it seems like a great option. I’d like to hear from people who have gotten this.

Did it hurt? How expensive was it? Did insurance cover any of it? Were the results accurate?
