I am 20 weeks pregnant today, and have been going through many trials and tribulations with my ex. He has moved on and is in another relationship. Which is fine with me. However he has really giving me his ass to kiss though this whole ordeal.

He first stated that I wasn’t pregnant, and now that he can clearly see that I am. He is screaming it’s not his child. I am hurt because the last six years of my life I have been there for him. I mean through thick and thin.

And this is how he repays me. He has never been to one prenatal visit. I ask him to take me to the grocery store for WIC and other misc items, and he never shows.

I can’t wait until December to have a paternity test done. I am in a state where I have no family. Limited friends, and I need help. Truth be told I didn’t make this baby on my own, so why should I have to go through this alone.

I can however support my baby by myself. I’m just scared because I suffer from epilepsy, and have been having seizures more often.

I feel like he is looking for any reason not to be a man. I’m not asking him to leave his girlfriend. I’m just asking for him to step up and handle his responsibliteis as a man, and soon to be father.

I confronted him in front of his current girlfriend, and he flipped out and threatended me stating he will hit me etc.

Any information will be helpful..

Well I have a prenatal visit Wed and I’m going to further discuss this with my obgyn. I’ve been googling information, and it’s saying that it can be done. So I’ll see what my doc has to say.

A close friend of mine and I slept together about a year ago when she was visiting for the first time since moving to London. She discovered she was pregnant some time after, but wasn’t sure if it was me or another guy who was the father.

At that time, I was okay with doing a paternity test to figure things out, but since then, my mother has passed away, leaving me to watch after my two little brothers (one 13, one 7) with my live-in, long-term girlfriend. It’s kind of like they are our children.

I’m worried about what my girlfriend may think of me, what she may think of the other girl and how stressful it could be knowing I have a baby girl in the world and very little I can do to help her or her mother, but I’m also worried about having that baby girl growing up without knowing who her father is. They will be visiting next week, and I’m considering doing a paternity test.

It could stir up a lot of drama and stress, or it could do nothing.
What do you think is best here?

Everything is going well with everyone at the moment without knowing this information. Should we leave well enough alone, or just get to the bottom of it already?

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.

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.

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’m pregnant and I need to get a paternity test as soon as possible. Yes, I know I can wait until my baby’s born, but we kinda need one now (Confusing situation).

So what’s the soonest that a prenatal paternity test can be performed?

Thanks for any helpful advice.

The father of my child is now deciding to deny the baby is his so I want to get a paternity test.

I am three months pregnant and want to get the prenatal one but he won’t agree to taking it.

All suggestions welcome.
