QuestionOkay. I'm in a situation here. I'm pregnant and had a few questions about paternity. I had my period Sept 22nd, 07 and had unprotected sex with a friend Oct 4th(i was fertile) I had an EARLY period Oct 15th, 2007. Lasted normal days. I met my current boyfriend Oct 17th and slept with him Oct 20th, 25th, 26th, and 29th . My due date is July 21st by Ultrasounds...was july 21st, then july 25th, bakc down to july 22nd...Doctors and nurses on that lil pregnancy wheel says conception would take place Oct 29th. Whose most likely to be the dad?? I am 20 weeks and 6 days as of today, March 9th 2008....please help me understand this!??
AnswerHi Tara,
From the information that you gave me, it seems that since you were having sex with your boyfriend on the dates around when they said you most likely conceived, it is most probably your current boyfriend who is the father.
Ovulation, the time when you release an egg and are then capable of conception, occurs on day fourteen of a 28 day cycle (day one is the first day of your period). The days around when you ovulate (around 2-3 days before and about one day after) are the only days that you can conceive.
However, I'm not saying that this is absolutely, 100% for sure. Nothing really is with the human body, because there always seems to be exceptions to the rules that we think we know. Based on what you told me though, I would say that it is highly improbable that you got pregnant in October.
If I can help you with anything else, just let me know.
