Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Even first trimester scans, which are most reliabe for dating, have an error margin of one week.
Given the 5 day gap between the two encounters, there is no way other than a DNA paternity test to know and confirm the father's identity.
Just saying - you are more likely to have conceived from your X partner, as that was closer to ovulation.
Take care.
