UPDATE!
We have a case which was tested and given an inclusion and she has confirmed accuracy after birth....
I know any bit of hope helps those of us who are waiting :)
Ok so I get induced on 12/20 at 7pm!!!
I really really don't think the father messed this up. They may have listed him as the mother but it was him and his blood they took. I saw the picture and his id. It was my id that they lost a copy of and my name they got all messed up. I don't have the energy to fight DDC. My lawyers were clear on the matter. It would be long drawn out and expensive. I can't afford to raise a child on my own, fight with the father, and fight DDC. Not to mention the strain all this has put on job performance, which I can't afford to lose. I have to pick what's important and what I can handle. I have known this man for 19 years I know for a fact when finds out this child is his and DDC, who continually reassured him the test was correct 100%, was wrong, will go after them. He will fight that battle. It is hard to be mad at him although don't get me wrong I am angry with him. But just imagine if you were in his shoes. They repeatedly told him that the test was correct no matter what, I am not sticking up for him but we were not in a relationship. We both travel extensively for work. He had my word and then he had the word of an accredited company. Yes it hurt he would not retest but DDC told him there was no reason to retest and the results were correct. I had no idea about the other girl but to give him a small amount of credit he did break up with her when he found out I was pregnant. He put all his energy and focus on me and the baby. We did the test just to make sure. It broke his heart when he got the results. He shut down and shut me out. That is what he does. So now I am doing what I can and what I can handle. I have a full plate so I will let the father take his wrath out on DDC because I know he will. He is a very powerful man.
I think you should use your lawyer as much as possible for this since you are not getting taken seriously by the DDC. If the subsequent testing proves that the baby is from your boyfriend, you have a claim against them for the stress and pain they have caused you. I would only question whether or not your boyfriend sent a ringer in his place.
Ok a little update on me. I am being induced next week and after I recover I will start the process for a paternity test on my son. I am getting induced a month early do to preeclampsia. :(. My doctor feels that it was brought on by stress. I am sending a certified letter to the father today to let him know what my plan is and to give him the opportunity to test without a court order, we will see how that goes. I highly doubt he will though. I have given up trying to go after DDC. I am going wait until the second paternity test goes through and then do what is necessary. If for some reason he gets an exclusion again, it does mean he is chimera and I am in for a long battle. I have meet with a local geneticist and he will help me if that happens. We both highly doubt that that is an option. It is more likely something happened at the lab or collection site. Either way DDC is responsible for who they subcontract out their collections to.
No matter what I will not stop fighting. :). I will tel you ladies the outcome.
The only thing that has me worried is this chimera thing. If the father or my baby is a chimera then all paternity tests would be wrong. My child would be left without a father and that is scary, but it is so rare so very rare that I just can't see that being the case. But then again I can't see how a paternity test could be wrong like this either. I asked DDC for an email or address to send the conflicting results and they said because of HIPPA that all I could do was call them. And that makes no sense to me at all. I need to get past Chris the call center manager to someone who is really in charge but I am being blocked at all turns right now.
