    Is my conception date true
    If I was told by my doctor that I conceive my child on the 30 of June is it possible that I could have conceived on the 19?

    It's very possible, but unlikely.

    What was the first day of your last period?

    If that is the case your date of conception is closer to the 30th (I got the 29th, but I don't have my "wheel" handy right now).

    You see the doctor puts the first day of your last period on the "wheel" that they use to estimate due dates and conception. This automatically gives the possible conception date, as well as the due date. Conception typically takes place around 14 - 15 days after the first day of your last period.

    Is your due date March 22 or 23 by chance?

    Yes I wanted to know because I'm n a big dilemma over who the father is. One of their dates is the 19 but the other is on the 30.

    Chances are it is the one you were with on the 30th. To know for sure you will have to have a paternity test done once the baby is born. But I place my bets on the 30th.

    That's what I'm hoping and praying on. We gon try to get the prenatal test done and I just want to go in confident in knowing who the father is because the other guy is giving me hell and I just want this to be over and I can be happy with my new family, so thank you so much for your imput, you really helped me out a lot!

    No problem hun. That's what we are here for.

    Now, I am not aware of any prenatal tests that can be done to determine paternity aside from an amniocentesis, and a doctor will NOT do an amnio strictly for paternity as it carries too many possible complications and is too expensive to do only for paternity.

    Unfortunately you will most likely have to wait until the birth for paternity to be established. Just know that most likely the guy from the 19th is not the father.

    FYI. There is no prenatal paternity test that they will do just for the sake of paternity issues. You will have to wait until the baby is born..

    And I agree with J-9, the chances of it being the guy on the 19th are very slim.
