    Who fathered my baby?
    Hi, I am not sure who fathered my baby. I slept with a friend 11th, Feb, 2013. Then got with my current partner the 18th. My first day of last period was 10th Feb 2013. My baby was due 17th Nov. My cycle is normal each month. I think its 28 days. I slept with my friend on the 2nd day of my period. Who could the father be?

    Time for a DNA test with all likely parties involved.

    I agree with Curlben, only 7 days apart its impossible to know without a DNA test after the birth of the child.

    Are both potential fathers giving DNA?

    I think I know the answer to this, but why are you not having them both tested if you want to truly know who the father is ? If your current partner is not the father, then what next? Will he stay with you knowing that it is not his baby because this will put you in a bigger pickle actually.

    Because if my current partner is not the father then I know who will be and if he doesn't stay with me that's his luck out

    Did you explain to your current partner why you are having a DNA test done? Its not clear what you are scared of.

    And that proves little legally because you would still have to have the other tested to prove it. Best to do them both...put any doubts to rest. You will need it in support issues, and doing it any other way will make you appear deceptive in their eyes...

    It's a long story scott my son looks like my current partner but I need to no 4 definite n smoothly I never thought of that to be truthful I don't think the other man would want anything to do with my baby

    If it ends up being his (meaning the other guys)... he would legally be obligated to pay child support once you went to court for it... even if he wanted nothing to do with the child... he would still have to pay for it. And its not an insignificant amount. Even if the other guy stays with you and raises it....it is enough money to make a differnce in all of your lives.
