Hello, it is very difficult to say just on the basis of your ovulation day whether this baby is your ex or not as it is not necessary that your egg is fertilised on the day ovulation as the life of ovum is 48 hrs and that of sperm is 24 hrs, so it is not necessary that your egg is fertilised on the same day it can be a day after also. if you want ot know it exactly i would advice you to go for karyotyping and DNA analysis which would give you more accurate results.
