I think the doctors are wrong about my dd

Hi I am really concerned about my due date I found out I was pregnant and the beginning of July and have my first scan and they said I was 8 week pregnant then had another one and said I was 10 weeks. Anyway I never had no morning sickness but I had a gut feeling something was wrong (pregnant) but from end of February which doesn't work out. so my due date was 8th January and had my little girl on the 20th January but she looks like my ex who I slept with on the 14/15th February but I also had a fling with someone in March but she doesn't look nothing like him. Is it possible that the doctors got it wrong and she was very late, but when I had her she weighed 10lbs 3oz and had to have an emergency section because she couldn't get her self out and I had been having Braxton hicks since beginning  November. She is now 6weeks old and everything she is doing she is not meant to be doing until she is around the 5 month old mark. I just really don't know what to do. I can anybody help or shead light on this please?

Well, from the first due date they gave you, you didn't conceive until mid-April, unless your due date was wrong.  

There is one rarity in the medical literature that might explain it, but another thing that is much simpler that might explain it is that ultrasounds done late in pregnancy can be as much as two weeks or three weeks off, due to differences in the growth rate of babies.

So if your due date was given to you later in the pregnancy, that could explain it.  This wouldn't stretch things back to February, though, only to the end of March.  

In case the rarity in medical literature (which was treated as being rather crackpot when it was published) applies to you, why not just get a DNA test with both guys?  That should answer the question once and for all.  (Unless they both come out "no."  Then you have a different kettle of fish.)
