OK, well, as I said before, it sounds like you conceived around December 5. This does not mean you were pregnant three weeks before the sex with the other guy, it means you were pregnant one week before the sex with the other guy. As you can see, this is not what would be called a compelling margin for safety, but pregnant is pregnant, and the other guy's sperm would not have altered or affected your baby. I am sorry it is not months and months different, you are just going to have to live with the nervousness. But your early ultrasound would not indicate a date that is so far wrong as even a week, meaning, it says you were pregnant (by about a week) when you and the other guy had sex.
The reason you have been thinking "three weeks" and I am saying one week is that doctors measure the pregnancy time period as beginning on the first day of your last period, not on the day you conceived. The day you would have conceived (according to your ultrasound evidence, thank heavens) is December 5. That would be a couple of weeks after your first day of your last period as the doctor calculates it. When a doctor says "you're 7 weeks along" or "you're 7 weeks gestational age," he means you're about 5 weeks since conception and 7 weeks since the first day of your last period.

Ok so today i had an appt and for some reason when the doctor examined me he said i measure at 30 weeks pregnant which i find that very off when i asked him how can that be when im only 27 weeks along and he said it comfuses him as well so he scheduled me another ultrasound two weeks from now so its really bugging me that now i dont have an exact due date....im lost now on keeping track on my baby because of this confusion and as i back tracked i remember telling my sister that i was spotting for 3 days nov 14,15,16 2017 but never actually got a period i figured it was stress so idk what the heck to go by anymore...please help me my anxiety and bipolar depression have been acting all hay wire....
Please see your doctor about the anxiety and bipolar.
I have saw the dr about my anxiety and bipolar depression and he didnt say much but now the guy i slept with on dec 12th which is the 2nd guy not my husband is coming around my house at night screaming its his baby so now my husband has been getting all jittery and for some reason the second guy is really confident its his baby lol but idk its droving me insane i have called the law on him but they said they have to catch them and you gave me and answer but i feel so confused still i really hope your right about me already being pregnant a week before i slept with the other guy....

To answer the question of whether a pregnancy can be altered by later sex with a different man, no it can't. The baby was formed when sperm met egg, and that was it. No later sperm can change that.
You have a tighter timeline than you think, though. You were told on January 12 that you were 7 weeks 3 days gestational age, and your due date is August 28, correct? Just to be sure I understand you, did the doctor tell you the due date from looking at the ultrasound on January 12?

Yes the dr went by the ultra sound due date....
The doctor "went by the ultrasound due date" but when was that date given to you? (Please answer in full, the details really do matter.) Did your due date come from the ultrasound that you got on January 12, or did the due date come from a later ultrasound?
The due date was given to me from the ultrasound that was done on january 12
January 12 i was told i was 7 weeks and 3 days and my due date was gonna be aug 28 2018 thru the ultra sound i have just been dying to know for sure cause this is my husbands first born but my 5th i have 4 from a past 10 year relationship and since we found out he has been beyond excited more than ever and it would break me if it wasn't his cause he has bought everything for the baby already from crib to clothes he has stocked up since i was 10 weeks pregnant....
