What To Do For The Finding Who Exactly The Reason For Pregnancy?

I recently found out I am pregnant. I had an affair with another man and the last day we had sex was march 30th using a VCF (vaginal contraceptive film). I ended things a few days after to try to mend things between my husband and I. We ended up having sex and we did not use a condom. He admitted to not pulling out in time. I took a pregnancy test on April 17th and it came out negative. I took another one April 23rd or 24th and it came out positive. Please help me figure out the best possible answer to who the father might be! I am planning on sitting down with my husband and telling him but I would still love to know what your best opinion is on this.

Unfortunately there is no way to be certain who the father is. Your sexual contacts are too close together in time, and birth control methods can fail. There might be a greater chance it's your husband's since you basically had unprotected sex with him, while with the other man you had a contraceptive.

The only way to be absolutely sure is to do paternity testing when the baby is born. Hope this helps.
