Get the DNA test anyway. It's not always easy to tell by looking at a child, whether or not it's mixed. In fact, I have known people that had a biracial child, even though both parents were whiter than snow. It happens.

A DNA test isn't that costly considering the peace of mind it will give you.

good advice...i haven't talk to her in months though,(actually we have no contact at all.) she moved out of state, i dont know if she will or not with the whole DNA test...she believes without a shadow of doubt the baby is his, also i believe so too...just wanted someone else opinion about it. well only time will tell...thanks.

Not all mixed children look mixed so "looks" never is 100 percent

that's true for mix kids...but this union, the baby will either be all white or mix with curly hair weather very light skin or dark brown skin...DNA test sounds good, but its not my call to make...i think the only way she would get one, if the baby dont have visible traits of the guy shes with.

Did you know that all, or the majority, or back and or mixed babies look white for the first few days of life?

badley · Jun 15, 2012, 08:45 PM

yes i know that the majority of babies look white until they are a few days old of life...but as i mention, the only way she would doubt the baby belong to the other guy...is if the baby didnt have traits after him...conceiving on your cycle is rare for any woman, and with a 10 to 11 day between sex partners...it just seem like its a given that the ultrasound dating conception to her second day of cycle is right...at least thats what the doctor assured her...he was confident in his dating. only time will tell i guess

She can't go by her last menstrual cycle then.

I know you want answers, and you can get them, but not now. You'll have to wait until the baby is born and get a DNA test. I'm sorry, but really, a DNA test is the only answer. Everything else is just a guess.

sorry for all the questions, but what did you mean by being more muddy because the ultrasound dating conception on the 2nd day of her period? why cant she go by her last menstrual cycle?

She can't go by her last period because you stated she conceived while on her period.

Most times dates are figured out by the last menstrual cycle. The majority of women are most fertile around 2 weeks after their period. If she conceived while on her period, which you really can't know for sure, then there's a 2 week window, or more, where the dates could be off.

oh..okay, so i guess the doctor had to date her pregnancy from conception and not from lmp.

And that's another issue. There's no way to know when she conceived, unless she's 100% sure of when she ovulated. It's all a guess.

You still seem to be grasping at straws. Really, there's no way you're going to get any answers until the baby is born and a DNA test is done.

You can go round and round with this for the next few months, and you still won't know who the father is until the DNA test comes back.
