Paternity tests

zebraparrot

Hi! I recently found out I'm expecting again with my now ex boyfriend. He refuses to believe that this baby is his even though I have not been with anyone else. I was looking into prenatal paternity tests but they're super spendy. I was just hoping that if I did it sooner he would have more time to get used to it and hopefully be around. If I wait until the baby is born, how does that work? What if he refuses to take the test?
If it makes any difference he is in the Army and I live in MN.

The army will force him to take a paternity test and if he refuses, they will lock him up until he complies. Any branch of the military is going to be a lot stricter on that stuff than any state government.

This, and ask your ob about paternity tests anf if they could do it after birth in the hospital. I wouldnt spend the monry on the ones furing pregnancy not with how much babies cost

Another vote for waiting after the baby is born. The state paid for ours when I filed for CS.

I agree. Wait until the baby is born and you can get a court ordered DNA test. They do take FOREVER though. I made Ryan take one on March 14th and the results so he KNOWS that Liliana is his comes back June 25th...that's a long time. But yes, I'd go through the Army if he's in the army..they'll be much stricter and probably more time efficent than the normal courts...
