How To Determine The Paternity Of The Fetus?
about 4 weeks ago I found out I was pregnant. But now I m approaching 7 months. I haven t had a regular period let alone a period at all since about October of last year so that is why I had no idea. But I m concerned because I may not know exactly who the father is. If I had sex at during the week of November 23-28 is it possible that s when I could have got pregnant. Because I m 27 weeks and 4 days but idk how accurate that is since it wasn t determined by my period and I haven t have a regular period since August, after that I ve never had one

Hello,
A genetic study can be done to determine the paternity. You have to undergo a procedure called amniocentesis to get a fetal sample for testing. Consult a gynecologist and he will direct you accordingly.
