My girlfriend just had our baby and I just want to know that it is truly mine for peace of mind.

 The baby was born last week. How do I go about getting a paternity test and what is the cost? Also how do they perform test?

I have a friend who has a girlfriend who is pregnant. He doesn’t want to be with her anymore, because she has knowingly cheated, but he doesn’t want to jeopardize being part of the child’s life. He wants a paternity test but can’t afford it. Would she have to pay for the doctor bill and the paternity test if he asks for her to get one?

He wants to gain custody of the child, but doesn’t think he should pay to find out if it’s even his and to be honest, I agree with him. He lives in Michigan. Any information would be great. Thanks!

She is underage and dropped out of school with no job. She refuses to see an OB/GYN and doesn’t take her prenatals. Her mother is addicted to drugs and the girl isn’t in a good environment at all, and the baby will have it worse off.  Which is why my friend wants to gain custody.

Hi, me and my girlfriend are trying to figure out if I’m the father of her baby. Her doctor would not do the amnio and we researched online and apparently many labs now offer non-invasive prenatal paternity testing.

We called and set up everything with a company called DNA Plus and she’s supposed to go get her blood taken at the hospital today. The guy on the phone told us not to mention anything about paternity testing to the hospital.

Doesn’t that seem kind of shady? Me and her are scared because of the reliability of this now. The website claims basically 100% accuracy and they are BBB accredited.

Here is a link to the page by the way: http://www.dnaplus.com/fetal_cell_prenat…

Also, we have to ship the blood aand DNA samles ourselves using FedEx.

I called them back (btw, its ALWAYS the same guy that answers the phone and its 24/7) and asked them why we can’t mention anything and he said “its none of the hospital’s business. and hospitals don’t like doing anything paternity related because it can end up leading to an abortion, and all the paperwork says we’re doing bloodtesting which that is what we’re doing.”

Waiting till the baby is born is not an option. We’re both going through emotional turmoil and need an answer. Nobody in the family even knows she’s pregnant due to the embarrassing circumstances.
