Question - (20 December 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 20 December 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have found out that I am pregnant.

I was with my ex boyfriend for 2 years and we broke up in September, to help get over him I started dating someone else. While being with my new boyfriend I had a 1 night stand with my ex partner.

I am now 11 weeks pregnant and the dates match to the father being my ex but there are only 10 day between having sexual intercourse with both. Are the dating scan accurate or will I have to wait until the baby is born?

And if I have to wait what do I tell them both and who do I take in the room while im giving birth?

You better speak to the doctor about it. You might be able to do a prenatal paternity test. Or you might have to wait. Best to talk to the doctor.

They date scans can be but are not always accurate, sperm can live inside a vagina for up to 72 hours. Sometimes doctors get the age of the baby wrong. Im 35 weeks pregnant now, but when I first went in they mis judged my baby's age by two weeks! Then I had another visit 3 weeks later they found out that my baby was only 8 weeks and not 10 like they orignally thought. They best advice I can give you is to have a paternity test after the babys born. Unless you are absolutly with out a doubt certain that its your ex's baby, i would take a paternity test. As far as who to take into the birthing room, thats something you and your partner need to discuss. I would take who ever has been there for the baby and I most in the birthing room with me, if it were me. Good luck!
