Costs and Recommendations Prenatal Paternity Testing

I am not sure of the father after my husband and I split up for a short time I made a mistake and slept with an ex. I’m 5 months pregnant and really need to get a prenatal paternity test without them knowing.
I saw where they are pretty expensive (over $1,000) and is there a place that costs a little less and is accurate for a Prenatal test or is this something that my insurance may pay for? Any help would be great!

Hi, Elle, maybe you don't need to do the costly prenatal test.  Do you have the exact dates of the split, the sex and when your first ultrasound was? Write them out like this if you do:

first day of last period ___
date of separation from husband ___
date of sex with Mr. Wrong ___
     (protected? unprotected?)
date of reconciliation with husband ___
when did you find out you were pregnant? ___
date of earliest ultrasound ____
due date given to you at that ultrasound ___

Are your cycles super regular (like, they always come like clockwork every 28 days) or do they vary?
