Biracial babies

I have been dating my boyfriend for a while now and am now having a baby.  The only problem I'm having is I had sex with my Ex when he came back into town .  I am now not sure if my baby is from him or my boyfriend.  I had sex with them both within 1 day of eachother so cant tell by my due date.  My boyfriend is black and my Ex is white.  Is there ANY way in the world for me to tell if my baby is of mixed race while I'm still pregnant.  I'm so scared and disapointed in myself for doing this.  Someone please help.  Im 24 weeks pregnant.  Thanks.....sry if this sounds "Jerry Springer"..I know its crazy!

Ypu can get a DNA test while the baby is in utero, but it might not be easy to persuade the doc to do it without a health-based reason.  The only other possibility is to go to one of those 3-D ultrasound places at about 20 weeks and see if you can get a look at the baby's face in hopes it will look like one dad or the other.  Problem is, it might look like neither very much.  Sorry to not have more cheerful news.

Most likely they wont give you a DNA test until after the baby is born. However since there is a greater chance of it being either/or I would inform your boyfriend of the possibility of it not being his child. It may hurt him but I figure better for him to find out now and try to accept that fact than have the baby be born and him to find out then. You may also want to alert your ex now (if you haven't done so already) that you could possibly be pregnant with his child and that you are not sure. Sorry to sound unsympathetic but you brought this upon yourself and the best thing to do about it is tell the parties involved the truth so that you can prepare yourself for both situations.

You've got to say something now, before the birth comes and he gets a shocking and unpleasant surprise.
