Can my boyfriend be the father?

My boyfriend and I normally use the withdrawl method and have sex about 3 times a week. He moved out of the state Oct 20th. That was the last day we had sex and the day I started my period. For 3 days my period was lighter than usual and then I had three normal days of bleeding. I figured I wasn't pregnant. Nov 2nd i had sex with a friend. We only had sex for 2 minutes because it was awkward cause we're close like kin. So of course he didn't ***. I didn't get my period Nov so I took a preg test on the 25th and it was pos. Dec 2nd, I had an ultrsound at a planned parenting clinic. The Nurse said I was 6 1/2 weeks preg and conceived around Nov 2nd or 3rd. Putting me due July 27th. Jan 2, I had another ultrasound but at a hospital this time and they said my due date was July 17th. My boyfriend is really excited about the baby an will be here for the birth but I don't know if it's his. Could the doc be wrong because they are predicting my due date based on my lmp? Could I have gotten preg before then? What is the chances that my bf is the father?

Because you had a period and a sonogram dated you at 6.5 weeks at the time, it is the friend's baby. He doesn't have to ejaculate in order to get you pregnant as pre-ejaculate contains sperm.

Early sonogram measurements are the most accurate and I would trust that it is correct. There is a 2 week gap between Oct. 20th and Nov. 2nd so if you did conceive in October you would've been much further along.

it could be either guys. even if the friend didn't ejaculate there is still pre ejaculate that is secreted through the penis during sex. it DOES contain sperm. it takes one sperm to get you pregnant. like smj said you're going to need a paternity test. good luck to you.

It's possible either way. Depending on when you ovulated. It takes 6-12 days for an egg to implant and actually give off the HCg hormone. You're probably going to need a dna test, but if I had to guess, I'd say it was your boyfriend, but again it could go either way.
