HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO TELL YOU YOUR PREGNANT?

If I had a pregnancy test done on May 15th and it came out I was Positive for Pregnancy does that mean it could read 2weeks pregnant? For example, I had sex on April 27th with some guy I dated for for those 2weeks and few days. Is it possible he is father or is the father my ex boyfriend who I had sex with all the month of April until the 20th? I had an ultrasound done on July 10th and said I was 12weeks and 2 days along. Another done on August 4th and it said 15weeks and 4days.

I agree with all the above. I don't think anyone can tell with 100% certainty who the father is because the dates are close to each other but it looks like the guy you had sex with on the 27th might be the father (I assume you had unprotected sex with him). That said, I think only a DNA test will tell for sure. Good luck!

Well, statistically speaking, it's less likely to be the guy you only had sex with once.  Unfortunately it's still possible it's him.  
When I put in the first day of the missed period into a due date calculator as April 16, it gives a due date of January 21 and a conception date of April 30.  So if you only slept with your ex-bf until April 20th and then the other guy April 27, I'd say it's more likely to be the other guy.
It's a tough situation as there's really no way to be sure.  I wish you the best of luck with it all!
(PS. I was particularly interested because my name is Bree, too) :)

I only had sex with him once on the 27th. My due date has changed twice either January 20th or the 18th of January.

They usually start counting weeks by the first day of your last period.  So if your period started on April 16th, you would have been 4 weeks on May 15th and would have conceived around April 30rd.
So according to that it could have been either guy as an egg can be viable for about 12-24 hours and sperm for 48 -72 hours, I think (I'm not nearly as knowlegeable in this area as others here).  
It would have been kinda early to tell on May 15th, but possible.  The dates are also pretty consistent with having conceived on April 27th.
May I ask if you had sex with the one guy only on the 27th or other days as well?  Also, do you have a due date?  It's kinda hard to tell with just those dates but if you use a due date calculator it can help narrow it down a little.  (Just google due date calculator)  The only way to know for sure is a paternity test when the baby is born.

Using the 9th as the last day of your period gives an estimated date of ovulation at April 23. Going by others would put it at even further. Using that makes it possible that it could be either man since sperm lives in a female for up to 7 days. The only way to know for sure would be a DNA test. (possible dates of conception using the 9th would be April 19th-April 27th)

It's a little hard to tell. Do you remember when you last period started? Some time in April?
