ask ur doc hun a lot of ppl say 7days but i asked my doc and he said live sperm can only be good for 36 hrs. but yes it sticks around for about 7 days it doesnt mean its any good for implantation. i say come clean to both men because stress is not good for baby :) the less u stress the best for both of u

It's too close to tell, u/s's can be days off, a DNA test is definitely best option.

Sperm can survive in the vagina for up to 7 days. Not 36 hours. Your dates are to close to be sure who's baby it is. Your best option would be to get a DNA test once the baby is born. Good luck.

i believe u ovulated around jan 3 which was justa day before u had sex with the other guy.  chances of him being the father are higher. in my case i had sex jan 8 and i ovulated around the 10th thats when i got pregnant. but keep in mind that sperm stays alive for 36 hrs inside of u. from my conclusions i think its the second guy u had sex with but im no expert. sorry ur in this situation hun good luck
