Well, as I said, it really could be either guy from the information you have.  It sounds like you don't want it to be one of them, I am hoping for your sake that when the DNA test results are in, it is the other one.  I don't think there is any more figuring that can be done with the set of data you have.  I would have had the conversation with the doctor in person next time you are in, where you can show it to her all dates and info lined out on paper, because docs are too busy to be hit with things like this on the phone.  But don't be surprised (because your dates are so close together) if you find that no doctor will be willing to say it is "absolutely" one date or the other.  You need to get a DNA test for certainty.  

ps -- I think it is slightly more likely to be guy #2, for what that is worth.

Honey, it's hard to understand your posts.  Here is what I think you are saying ....

You had a period Feb. 21-26
You had sex with a guy Feb. 27
and
You didn't have sex again until March 10.

You found out you were pregnant on March 22 by home test.

On:                     You thought you were:

May 30                   14 weeks along
May 1                      9 weeks 1 day   from what "they said"
May 1                      9 weeks 6 days   from what the sonogram says

If you were 9w6d on May 1, that would point out a conception date of around March 7.
___________________

Here is the thing.  In your ninth week, there is a margin for error when dating a pregnancy by ultrasound of +/- a few days.  It would stretch your ovulation date forward to include March 10, but I am not certain how well you could count on it being the guy from February 27 even if you theorized that you actually ovulated earlier, like March 4.  Sperm lives up to 5 days or so in your system, and that is pushing things.

But it really does sound like both guys have a chance.  This is definitely a case for getting a DNA test.

I can't tell from what you are saying what is going on.  You say you got different answers based on one thing or another.  All you can do to try to get some further clarity is to lay it out for the doctor,  Tell the doctor you had:

Sex with guy A   February 27
Assumed ovulation (March 7?)
Sex with guy B   March 10

and point out that while you have been given November 28, it would point to the 7th, but your ultrasound says 9w6 when you were told 9w1 or whatever.  Show the doc on a calculator that things are not exactly adding up clearly, and be specific that you really need to know.

I can't tell enough from what you are telling me to give you any better information.

Originally, you said, "My Due Date is November 28 But That's Just Going By My Period."  Are you saying that the doctor said, it's also confirmed to be November 28 by your baby measurements?

If you did ovulate March 7, or even if it was off by only one or two days, there is still the chance the guy on March 10 is the dad and not the guy from February 27.  Unfortunately, you can't rule either guy out.  All you can do to try to get some further clarity is to lay it out for the doctor,

Sex with guy A   February 27
Assumed ovulation (March 7?)
Sex with guy B   March 10

and ask if the ultrasound gives any better help than it has so far.  You've really split the difference perfectly, and it will take your doctor working hard on this with you to get any clarity.  Otherwise only a DNA test will do it.  I'm sorry there is not a clearer answer.

Hmm.  Well, if they did not give you an estimated due date that was based on the sonogram only, but was instead merely based on your last period, they did not do anything very helpful for you.  

I'd ask the doctor to look at the baby's measurements on the May 1 sonogram and to tell you an estimated due date computed only from the baby's measurements and developmental markers.  Then, from THAT estimated due date (nothing about when your last period was), you can put it through a conception calculator and try to get a better idea of what the date suggests.

So far, I don't think the guy on the 10th is ruled out.
