How can you tell who got you pregnant without doing a paternity test?

In some cases, paternity can be ruled out based upon blood types. If you are a blood type B- and the mother is blood type B+, a baby with type A or type AB blood cannot be yours - the father has to be someone with type A blood. Also, if the baby shows definite racial characteristics, such as the eye folds typical of individuals of Asian descent or deep skin tone typical of individuals of African descent, and neither you nor the mother have these characteristics, the father has to be someone else.

However, these are pretty vague generalities - to definitively prove (to a court's satisfaction) that you are or are not the father, you will need a paternity test. It is a painless test - you simply swab the inside of your cheek and the mother and baby have the same thing done. DNA fingerprinting is performed on all three samples, and the odds of you plus the mother generating the baby's DNA fingerprint are calculated.

How often does a false negative pregnancy test occur?

I think it depends on how early you are in pregnancy. I took 10tests which all were negative even though I knew I am pregnant before the HgC levels were high enough to indicate pregnancy via test. You can usually get an accurate reading about 1-2weeks pregnant with a good test such as Clearblue digital (I used this which indicated I was 1-2weeks pregnant) and I'm not 4weeks pregnant and registered with the midwife. Good luck!

If your period is over a week late but two home pregnancy tests were negative could you still be pregnant?

It's possible, but unlikely. Go see a doctor to be sure. You may need to take some medication to get your period back on track. That happens to some women occasionally.

It IS possible, and it IS likely. You probably are not producing enough hcg yet. Your hcg increases every 72 hours. Retest after 72 hours.

That is probably 4th week. Average HCG 14 days after conception is around 100.

A paternity test while pregnant involves taking cells from the amniotic fluid or chorionic villi.

Amniocentesis is performed in the second trimester, anywhere from the 14th-20th weeks of pregnancy (or later).

Chorionic Villus Sampling is done between the 10th and 13th week.

These tests are often discouraged for the sole reason of seeking paternity because of the increased miscarriage risks.

Can a pregnancy test detect if you are 3 days' pregnant?

If the miscarriage was recent, yes, probably. I took a pregnancy test on the day I started bleeding from my miscarriage and it was positive. The ER docs said that only conformed the presence of pregnancy hormones, not whether it was a viable pregnancy. However, my midwife took blood a week later and advised me to take another pregnancy test at the end of the month to confirm my pregnancy hormones were going away. She said if the test was positive in a month, and I was sure I wasn't pregnant again, to come back in and make sure there wasn't something additionally wrong, a thing called a molar pregnancy.

if its an early miscarriage there may be no hormones left after a week of bleeding and it will come back negative.
