    The dates are too close together. The only way to determine paternity when there are two possible fathers, is a DNA test after the baby is born.

    Ultrasounds are a best guess, they can be off by 2 weeks either way, which adds up to a month.

    Really, the only reliable way to determine paternity is with a DNA test.

    Everything else is a guess.

    Yes with all the data you provided there is a chance it could be the husbands, so a DNA test will be needed to be sure.

    Also legal issues, since most states legally consider the child the husband if pregnancy and/or birth occur while married.

I had blood drawn and my hcg levels were great but they only put me at 4 Weks I half to wraith until Monday to speak with my ob but I am worried about this baby! Has any one else had a "6wk" u/s and olny seen the yolk sac? What is going on with my baby? I've never experienced this before and I'm very scared!

    The ultrasound put you at 4 weeks, and yes, at 4 weeks it's perfectly normal. You're putting your date at 6, not the ultrasound.

    You posted that they said you're 4 weeks.

    Wait and talk to your ob. Remember that ultrasounds are a best guess. Since you don't know exactly when you conceived, they go by your last menstrual cycle, and what they find on ultrasound. But at this stage in the game, there's not a huge difference between 4 and 6 weeks. A two week gap is normal, since it's ultrasound, and just a best guess.

    There's no way for us to give you that information, we don't have access to your ultrasound, or the findings, just what you told us. We know as much as you do at this point.

    The tech is right, you'll have to talk to your OB.

    Only the doctor can tell you if everything is okay. The fluctuation of your dates is pretty common. It would be too early to see a heartbeat yet.

    Agree, at this point and time, there is just too little info available, and dates and info can change over the next weeks.
