Hoe To Calculate The Conception Date And Know Paternit Of The Baby?
Question: I have irregular period and in November 2013 I didn't have a period but my due date is august 12,2014. I have had sex with a ex on November 10th 2013 and sex wth current boyfriend on November15,16,17,2013. So when was my conception date and who is most likely my child father?
Brief Answer:
Your current boy friend.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
According to your due date your ovulation should be near 19th November. This makes the possibility of your Ex to be the father less likely. Since there is a possibility of error of 7-10 days in the calculation of the expected date of delivery the exact date of conception cannot be calculated for sure.
A paternity test after the birth of the child is the best way to confirm this.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
