Help So confused???

My LMP was on Feb .5th and ended on Feb.9th., my first ultrasound was on May 4th and dated me at 12 weeks2days.This put my estimated conception at Februeary 22nd. My first visit to the doctor was on March 19th and I asked my doctor if the 26th of February was a possibility...He told me that it was absolutely not a possibility being thath it would have been to late to conceive since i have 30-32 day cycles and based on that assumption I spent my entire pregnancy believing his educated opinion. I guess I had asked based on my own intuition. I was with the person I was dating the entire month of February with the exception of the February 26th. The problem now is that my child is here and a paternity test was done for the boyfriend I had at the time. The test results came back negative and we were both pretty devastated and now I'm so confused and lost. My main concern now is whether my doc was wrong and the ex(one day late in February) is in fact worth approaching since is the only other partner I had that month. Being that the ex has a child and at this time a girlfriend this would be very unfortunate. If he is indeed the biological father, that would mean that I ovulated on day 21 or later? What is the possibility of me having conceived that day? Is it more likely that the first DNA test was wrong or the ex is her Dad? I don't see him being very willing to test but is it even worth me going through the hassle? Both scenerios seem just so unlikely to me?! What is your opinion? When did I conceive? Could both my doc and my calculations be wrong? Help

I'd say if your boyfriend now, the guy that you got tested, is willing to be a father figure, let him. The ex-boyfriend I would still tell, but not get my hopes up if he didn't want to get involved.

Your pregnancy is measured from your last period because not everyones the same. Some ovulated after there period some later on so your doctor can not be exsacly sure when your ovulating without blood tests. I agree with the other ladies get DNA testing.

Also, idk what your doctor was thinking, but with a 32 day cycle your estimated ovulation was the 21st but its been proven that you can ovulate a week earlier or later.

She's right. And if the other Guy doesn't want to do dna file for child support. They'll give him a court order for dna and do the test for free.
