a little lost...

I'm 17 weeks and the question of who the father is keeps coming up. I know who the father is but he doesn't believe me.i would like to know if it's possible I got pregnant before my period? I had a one night stand on January 6 and my period showed up January 11 and lasted 5 days regular flow. I had unprotected sex with an old friend on the 16 and the 21. Is it possible this baby belongs to the one night stand? Also being 17 weeks I haven't really felt the baby move should I worry?

I don't understand why people say you can't have your period while your pregnant. Yes you can. One of my friends had a period every month throughout her entire pregnancy which to me is drawing the short stick cuz it's awesome not having one for 9 months but she did. Her body just continued to ovulate and send an egg every month while there was a baby in there. She had her period throughout her entire pregnancy every month on time. It was weird and it's rare but it is possible to be pregnant and have a period.

You ovulate after your period ....ur period clear out the lining and etc. You body releases eggs only when u ovulate witch is after ur cycle. If you would have gotten pregnant by the one night stand you wouldn't have gotten your period! And since you u had sex with the one night srand guy then had your period witch flushed out the lining there's no way you could have been pregnant at the time of ur period cause it would have flushed out everything. Google it...your really not even pregnant for the first 2 Weeks doc. Just go by LMP cause its impossible to get pregnant prior to it. Its just a rule of thumb.... If you Google how conception happens you will see what I'm saying!

Unprotected. I know I'm about to get judged and it's alright, kinda... The one night stand I don't really remember because I had to much to drink. From the parts I do remember we just fooled around and that was it because he rolled over and went to bed. But I'm not 100% sure.

For prenatal testing, or testing done during pregnancy, there are several options to choose from:

Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP): A non-invasive prenatal paternity test is the most accurate non-invasive way to establish paternity before the baby is born. The process is state-of-the-art, combining the latest technology and proprietary methods of preserving and analyzing the baby’s DNA found naturally in the mother’s bloodstream. This test requires only a simple blood collection from the mother and alleged father and can be performed any time after the 8th week of pregnancy. The test is 99.9% accurate.

@ladyinferno the doctor mentioned that to me also, about going by my period but I'm still worried. @junnemommy23 lol yeah maybe you're right. I understand about knowing and feeling who the dad is but people have just put so much doubt in my mind. Just when I start believing everything is going to be fine and who care who the baby belongs to someone has to bring up the father sitution. Thanks again though

Most likely its the second guy. But its a possibility that its the first. No way to really know without DNA test after baby is born. Also for a ftm most don't feel there baby until 18-24 weeks
