Thanks Loz and congratulations.

There are DNA tests that you can do now. Google "non-invasive DNA testing." It will NOT harm the baby. They extract the babies DNA from your blood so there is no risk to the fetus. It is pricey however.

I still think it is your partners.

Thank you Dan. I have had a look into it and it is rather pricey so I shall just wait it out until he arrives and do one then. Thank you for all of your ongoing support I will let you know the outcome. I think you are probably right as it would tally up with my dates that it is my partners baby

It is HIGHLY UNLIKELY that you ovulated any later than December 14th, which means you could not have gotten pregnant after the 16th. With a consistently short cycle, it is more likely you ovulated between December 9-11th, and due to the fact you are having a boy, even more likely you conceived within 2 days of ovulating. This puts your conception date most probably on December 10th or 11th, 16-17 days before your test, which would have given HCG time to build up in your system to show positive. WELL before the day of the 18th. In order for the "other person" to be the father, you would have had to ovulate 16 days into your cycle, and the egg would have had to be viable 48 hours minimum, and you would have to have enough hormones in your body after only 9 days, which is very early for a test. I agree that the odds definitely favor your current partner, but medicine has not quite covered everything in the human body.

Thank you for your message. Am hoping everyday for the outcome I hope for but do know that it's not impossible for it to be the other guys. I get intense ovulation pain one sided every month and had this on the 13th of Dec as was at a party and remember the pain on my left hand side. It was confirmed during an early scan the baby did indeed come from an egg from left ovary so I hope this I positive too.

Unfortunately I'm needing some reassurance as well. I had my first ultrasound yesterday I am 5.1 weeks gestational. My conception date was June 16th, my boyfriend and I have been trying for awhile so we we're having unprotected sex at that time. Around the same time I made the biggest mistake and slept with someone else, he did use a condom and it did not break. I know the only sure way is a DNA test but the situation has put a lot of stress on me and I know it will continue through my pregnancy. Just wondering if anyone can give me any hope that this will be my boyfriends baby

It was either the 11th or 18th, according to my ovulation calculator I would've had my last day of ovulation on the 16th. Would it be possible for the ultrasound tech to be 5 days off with the conception date?

bambi27109793 I am not sure if you are still active on here but I really liked your factual reply to this post so I wondered if you can advise me to.I never get replies and need someone to advise me please

I am struggling with my conception date well more worried than anything else. My lpm was 15th Feb. My 1st scan said edd 20th Nov and other 2 scans confirmed 19th November - sounds good. Had intercourse on 21stn or 22nd can't remember unprotected with my husband (came inside) and then again on March 6th with someone else (with protection - no accidents reported, apologies for being so graphic: I examined myself and there was no remains of sperm inside me only the usual condom oily feel and odour - I assumed all is good and condom did its job) so (long story short, we separated with my hubbie for few days - couple troubles) According to all the calculation including my lmp and US my conception should be around 26th Feb - 1st March so nowhere near 6th March. And to mention I had MC last Sep so my cycles were little all over the shop but before pretty 28 days +/- couple days due to stress in work etc. Please help when was I likely to conceive.My midwife said around end of Feb beginning of March - my belly is measuring pretty spot on as well. I really hope for some replies. Many many thanks Maria x P.S please be nice am already worried sick and really want my hubbie to be the father x
