DDC NIPT does it ever get easier

I had my doubts about paternity I conceived in JUNE LMP 6/2 I have 28-30 cycles....
I had intercourse with partner A 6/14 6/17 partner B 6/19 4am(so 6/20?) and partner A 6/21 partner A finished all 3 times and partner b pulled out.....
I was sure it was partner A's till my first scans started dating me for most probable ovulation 6/20-6/21 and it freaked me out beyond words
I got partner B to do DDC's NIPT with me on 8/27 got my results 9/18 which excluded him I was beyond happy now two weeks later I want to trust my results but recent false positives from two other females online have made me question my test....
I contacted DDC and due to my uncertainty they offered to review my results and if any questionable circumstances arise they would retest but I don't think I can get partner B to redo it for me I hope that is not the case....
as you can imagine im in a relationship which was rocky at that time and I just can find the courage to tell my partner about my doubts I hope my results are accurate and that when I hold my baby in march that he will look like his father.... it feels like a reoccurring nightmare mentally I want to be happy and not stress about this mistake anymore but its hard ive met enough supportive ladies here also which help distract me and help me want to trust my results but id lie if at the end of the day i could say i didn't still worry.

"Conception date" when counting from an ultrasound (if the ultrasound is early enough in the pregnancy to be useful for this purpose) is the day the sperm meets the egg and it becomes an embryo.  An egg is only viable for 24-36 hours.  But sperm can hang around for 5 days waiting for the egg to make an appearance, it does not become non-viable as fast as an egg does.  This is why someone can have sex on January 1 and conceive on January 5 -- the ovulation in that case would be on the 4th or 5th, and the waiting sperm from January 1 fertilize the egg.  But it doesn't work the other way around.  If someone ovulates on January 1, she will only have 36 hours from that point, before her egg is not going to work any more if it hasn't been fertilized.

Mine showed up the samee too the exact just like how you are mentioning as well.. I noticed this when someone else screenshot a copy of there results from what I seen all exclusions look the same. I Was worried and called DDC too figure out why it was the samee too many other peoples results fetal dna , aleged father and my dna look the same as others and they said those are just examples on the snps they check but they check snps. The thing what worries is the timing and the excuses then the redraw because according too them not enough fetal dna I heard alot of women went threw this but im guessing because they got backed up?? Idunno I hope they are correct in the end /:

Our test results are the EXCACT SAME ... From mothers DNA to our alleged fathers DNA and the child's DNA. and I received the results around the same time you did ! We both had to be redrawn and had to wait as they came up with more and more excuses ! And I do not feel comfortable with the results at all ! Definitely not now considering they are the same

Well if it helps anyone we had a young lady on here also who got two exclusions from DDC and ended up getting an inclusion on her third partner. If the note counts at all for anyone, it has given me hope that the test can detect exclusions and matches correctly.
