Hi, moonlove, go with your earliest sonogram, not a later sonogram. By the time you are full term, the margin for error when trying to use a sonogram to determine your conception date is as much as +/- 3 weeks. Only the earliest ones are at all useful, and even those have to be pretty early to be precise.

The baby is 1 years old now and you were right my boyfriend was ...is the dad of my child

That's great, and congrats!
hey annie i just found out that my due date is on feb the 10th do you know based on the information i told you which one is more likely to be the dad the guy from the may3rd or every other day guy to become my husband in two weeks
Some men freak out and run girl he wouldn't be the first... is there any way you can get guy # 1 to do it?
as far as the price that sounds odd being that they would slash the price and are now requesting swabs and not just blood can you get me the number that you called so I can verify? I would want to question why its half the price now and why the swabs?

I actually already told him Wednesday and he stopped talking to me then and today I see pics of him back with his ex and he blocked me from his phone and only emailed me saying that this isn't his baby and that he's gonna move on. it hurts because I don't think it's guy 1 baby and I was gonna do the invasive test to find out before he moves on and do something like he's already done but at this point it's too late I don't feel that I will ever take him back now after seeing these pictures regardless if the baby comes out as his or not and I will not go the extra mile and prove to him a test before the baby comes if he wasn't willinh to wait out. Some men act like little girls in my case I would've expected him to understand that he happened after the past but now I know he was only really there if it was his baby and we don't know for sure if it's his or not but he can't seem to wait it out like I'm doing so I don't think he deserves another chance from me and hated how he says hope it isn't mine and I don't want that baby it's not mine. He should've left baby out but anyways women I know we make mistakes but having a baby is a blessing and we don't have to let our doubts gets the best of us. Being honest about the situation is hard and stressful to deal with but in the long run we will be happier that way. I'm coping now and dealing cos I really loved him but afterall he made a choice. Now I'm hoping that its not his so that way I don't have to deal with his immaturity.
I didn't even fill the info it was a number my friend told me to call to order it and it said that they're running a special for $800 but it usually $1600 and they want me to get samples blood test and swabs for the father and send it back to them but after reading yall review on this I didn't fill anything no more

The price also sounds about a thousand dollars lower than people mention for the DDC test. Are you sure you are dealing with the DNA Diagnostic Center?
Candy what test is this? my non invasive test had to be done at a lab with blood from myself and one of the possible fathers.
Thank you im going through DDC the test is $800 and im pretty sure it's guy 2 but I still have doubt because I don't know for sure when I ovulated according to the doctor he said I ovulated on May 11 but I think I ovulated before that this is just soooo stressful I love guy 2 but I just want the result to come in already so I can know what to do from there and deal with the pain or be happy but for the best I really hope it's guy2 and he understands that I did this before him but he is just judgemental that I even slept with someone before him he expect me to be this perfect girl who's never done nothing wrong in the past.

Candy, some of the labs out there are kind of notorious for wrong results or losing the tests or other negative things. If you are dealing with Ravgen or the DDC, I would have faith that the test is reliable. But if you're dealing with a cheapie lab from the Internet, you risk the answer being wrong and getting your boyfriend all worked up for nothing. Your dates suggest pretty that the first guy is the dad. In your shoes, I would not have let my fears run me to the point where I told him that you had had a partner so close to you getting together if it was going to bother him so much, but that's water under the bridge now. If he is angry, be sure he understands that the first guy was before him (not during the time you and he were an item). And be SURE you don't do the test you have if the lab has a questionable reputation.
I told guy2 today about guy1 and he automatically said that baby isn't mine and I don't wanna be in your life and you disgust me and all kinds of rude and mean things out of anger which I don't blame him for his madness but it's stressing me out more I really love guy2 but I met guy 2 after guy 1 and we fell in love so fast and now I'm just so nervous that the test will come back that baby is guy 1 not that he's a bad man but I just can't see myself building a family with guy 1:)
A non invasive just got the kit today so I will send it tomorrow im really nervous about it I really hope it's guy#2 for the best but I guess if it's not there's always that consequences to the choices we make that we gotta live with but do you guys know how reliable these tests are with the result? Please help im just so nervous to find out ...

Hi Candy, do you mean a non-invasive paternity test? Or do you mean a test after the baby is born?
My due date is Feb 1st same as yours I had sex on May the 2 and then with the second guy everyday since the 4th of May im having a boy and im so happy about that and my dr said I ovulated on May 12 so I'm hoping it's guy#2 but we're gonna do an invasive paternity test with guy 2 just to make sure I'm kinda scared I haven't told him about guy 1 but I'm really hoping its guy2

You can't find out when you ovulated at this time. If you had been using an ovulation detection kit, you might have been able to identify your hormonal surge that comes right before ovulation, but that would have had to happen at the time. All you can do is assume you ovulated on or around the 8th.
yes they said the same thing you said that the early sonogram was the one that shows more information ,but she said its a girl today the sonogram said that im 16weeks 5 days but she said i was 17w2d..

You said, "you did say that if it was a boy it was 3rd baby." In fact, if you scroll up and look, you'll see what I said was "If the baby is a boy, it would also tend to suggest Mr. May 3 is not the dad." But this doesn't apply; since the child is a girl, neither possible father is suggested more strongly than the other.
Your due date of January 31, like the earlier due date you mentioned of January 29, supports (but does not prove) that the guy on the 3rd was too early.

The average number based on average counts of average women would be 14 days, not 11, and ONLY if they had really super-regular 28-day cycles from period to period, such that she could set her clock (or calendar) by them always coming on day 29. If a woman's periods are not on the dot and matching, she can't tell when she might ovulate in between them, no matter how many charts she looks up on the computer.
For a woman whose periods are not like clockwork every x days, the way to know is not to count forward from the last period, but backward from the first day of her *next* period, because ovulation leads in to the next period, the period does not lead to ovulation. If you don't have several months' records of exactly when your period came, and if they are not entirely regular, you won't have any way to guess from your menstrual cycles when you might have ovulated.
Besides all of this, you have had two ultrasounds early enough to give you all the information you need, based on seeing and measuring the actual embryo. Those counts, as long as they are early enough in the pregnancy, are way more reliable than a count based on when your last period was.
You had one early and one relatively early ultrasound that both pointed to conception on the 8th. Please don't use a count based on a period to try to contradict what the ultrasound saw. It measured the actual embryo and looked at the embryo's developmental markers. That trumps any count based on periods.
Conceiving on the 8th does not rule out the guy on the 3rd totally, but it almost does. The research on the life of the sperm in your system is a bit scattered, with some saying it only lives 3-4 days, some saying 5-6, and some saying longer, although apparently after day 5 the sperm is not hearty enough to penetrate the egg, says some research. This all suggests (but does not prove) that the guy on the 3rd was too early. I'd go with that assumption during the pregnancy and then get a DNA test when the baby is born just to put the whole question to rest forever.

What makes you think you ovulate on the 3rd? Your ultrasounds indicate that at least this time, you ovulated on the 8th. Yes, sperm can live a while in your body (not 8 days, though).
thank you so much for your help annibrooke i feel that this is mr3rd baby for the simple reason that i ovulate on the 3rd and i am very far and sperm does live in your body for 5-8 days so i think i can only do one thing at this point

I'd suggest that the first one, the 8 week 0 days one, which computes back to conception on May 8, is the one to use if you are going to use an ultrasound to determine an estimated conception date. May 8 suggests strongly, but does not totally guarantee, that the May 3 guy is out of the running. You will need a DNA test to confirm, but almost all of what you are describing points to your boyfriend.
