In the early days of pregnancy neither ultrasound, blood, nor urine tests may pick up pregnancy. I went to my OB in the first couple of weeks of pregnancy, and she couldn't tell I was pregnant either, but I was. You will need a DNA test, your dates are just too close together.

Not necessarily. It depends strongly on when implantation occurred and what your hormone levels were at.

So wht if the 23 I went for a ultrasound cuz of my tummy pains & everything was okay but a week later I went back to the clinic & I was prego but if I had sex the 9th of july shouldnt it had showed up tht I was

You will need a DNA test. If you ovulated early it would be the 1st guy. If you ovulated late it would be the 2nd. But no one can find out the exact date of ovulation. So its impossible to know which man is the father. Sorry dear but a DNA test is the only way to figure out whose baby it is.

Ovulation only occurs on 1 day, not multiple. You are fertile for 5 days leading up to ovulation however, as sperm can survive 5-7 days in the female body. Online ovulation calendars are also only a guess and not exact. Unless you chart ovulation using BBT and/or OPKs it's not possible to say 100% when you ovulate, making it impossible to guess who the father might be. You need a DNA test done when the child is born.

Thnks ,can I ask another question if u dnt mind okay say if I had sex the 9th of july with my ex & the 17 of july with someonelse who should I go with fir being my babys father . But remind u. My ovalte days was from the 12 of july to the 17  I tld both if them im just still confused :(

Conception dating is not exact and should not be thought of as such. As for if it can start before you have sex, no. Without sperm pregnancy can not occur, the egg needs something to join with.
