Even then it's too close together to know without a DNA test. If the ultrasound was off by even a few days, which is not uncommon even in the first trimester, you could decide the wrong guy is the father. Just remember that sperm lives for 5-7 days in ideal conditions, so you could have had sperm from both in you within a couple of days of each other. Think it's a good thing that you've been honest with them...just a little longer and you can find out for sure.

If you had an ultrasound on 29th November and you were 8 and half weeks this would be more accurate than the recent one. Going by this date your conception date would have been 6 and half weeks earlier than 29th November, give or take a couple of days. Counting backwards 6 and half weeks is around 14th October so i would say the first guy is more likely to be the father. Ultrasounds are rarely more than a week off in the early days and 6 weeks before 29th Nov is 18th Oct so if the ultrasound was off by 3 days this is still closer to the first guy.  The only way to be sure is to have DNA test. Hope this helps.  x

The dates are too close together to know. You will need a DNA test when the baby is born.

It honestly could he either. Dating is online accurate by ultrasound in the first trimester. By 24 weeks it could be a couple weeks off. The only thing you can do is get a paternity test once the baby is born
