Husband questioning son.

My husband and I were split up, weren't married at the time. The first week of March I had unprotected sex with a previous ex. My now husband and I got
Back together around the 16th of March and have been together ever since. I was on birth control up until my husband asked me to stop taking it around the 20th of March so we could try for a baby. (Please no judgement, this is far from the whole story) I missed my period that next month, I bled shortly after I got off my birth control. Only for a few days and light. I got a positive pregnancy test on Easter Sunday. My husband and I got our first ultrasound on June 9th and I was 11 weeks 1 day by the measurements of the baby. Still August 11th I was measuring right on at 20 weeks, 2 days. My due date was December 28th. Had my son December 24th. My ex asked my mom if my son was my husband's and she said yes. I told my husband that on Friday and he's been different ever since. Last night I asked if he had any doubts that he wasn't his. He kind of put the answer off. Said have I ever questioned it before? I got upset, started bawling, because I know him and I know he was questioning it. I then went out to the living room and he came out a few mins later and was loving on me and said that he loved me and he loved our son. Said he shook his head when I asked. I am just so upset. Still crying this morning. I just feel like he really doesn't believe he is his. :'( sorry for the long post. Please, if you're going to pass judgement or be rude in any way, don't reply to the post. Thanks in advance.

If ur certain the baby is his just offer a paternity test so it will end all this conflict & he will nvr be able to feel like the baby isn't his cuz he will have proof..good luck hun

Communication is key sweetie. ALWAYS remember that :-) that's how.my hubby got doubt also by other people asking if it was his or.not. Definitely just have a serious talk about it hun. And put all the facts out there but still offer a test for peace of mind

Just buy the dna kit and do it at home. Send it off and the results will come right to ur mailbox. If it would make everyone feel good then its $100 well spent. I understand why ur upset. Just nup it in the bud now.

Thanks ladies. I guess I am just most upset that we planned our son and ever since I told him about my ex asking my mom that he's been different.

You said your husband was loving on you and tryin to comfort you. If he was really really really questioning it or had That much doubt as you feel he does he wouldn't have gotten sweet on you, he loves you and your son it's okay to be sad about it but don't let it worry you too much your baby is Definitly your husbands but maybe offer up a paternity test if it brings peace of mind. You two got married because you get along and care about each other, make sure you can talk stuff out too especially important stuff like that, try to stay calm and get through it :)

I agree with her↑ I kinda went thru the same thing with my now husband,only granted I didn't sleep with anyone else, but he was so positive I did. And even though the whole time he acted as if she were his and even up until I was in labor with her I told him that the moment shes born and they do blood work ur getting dba tested because I WILL NOT be dealing with this in ten years when u get pissed about something and start saying shes not.urs and treating her different.  It's something I would most definitely sit down and talk to him about hun. Because exactly u DON'T want him getting mad about something and one day go thats not my son. Good luck sweetie. It WILL be ok

Definitely not opposed. Just heartbroken that he is questioning him. :'( the dates are way too off for him to be my ex's. Not to mention I was on birth control. I took so many pregnancy tests waiting on that positive. If it were my ex's I would of gotten a positive pregnancy test early April and my son's due date would of been like September or November. Not almost January. Just upsetting.

I mean for peace of mind would you be opposed to giving him a paternity test? It sounds like everyone is in limbo and god forbid one day your husband has a wild hair up his *** and starts treating your son differently because he doesn't believe it's his.
