Would you ask your wife to take your children for paternity test if she cheated once?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

  • You have to tread very carefully with your wife. If possible find out when she cheated the once and you should be able to calculate the birth of the first or last child. If a long while has gone by then it would be best to accept both children and carry on with your marriage. Children are children and it sounds as if you have connected with both children. If it really bothers you and your wife cheated in the last two years then you should be honest and get a paternity test on at least the one child you feel may not be yours.

What could happen if you lied about your child's paternity?

Asked by Wiki User

It is not good to lie about your child's paternity because the possibility may come up when he/she may need bone marrow or blood transfusion. Plus your child should know about the other part of his/her family tree.

It's safest to have it done after the baby is born. When you are pregnant, an amniocentesis has to be done and there is a possibility of miscarriage. It's not worth the risk, better to wait until the baby is born.

How is elasticity test done?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is to test the internal strength of the hair (the cortex). Hair that has been damaged due to chemical treatments may have lost much of its natural strength. This type of hair may stretch over two-thirds of its original length and may even break off. It is important to carry out this test before perming. Hair that is in good condition will stretch and then return to its original length.

Take one strand of hair and hold each end firmly between the thumb and forefinger of each hand and gently pull. If the hair stretches more than half of its original length then it is over elastic and may snap or break during chemical processing.

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

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

Can you determine paternity by dates?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Full term gestation of a fetus ranges from 38 to 42 weeks. Doctors primarily suggest 40 weeks in the EDD (estimated date of delivery), but a woman, especially first time mothers, can go into labor two weeks early or two weeks late of her EDD. However, if a woman appears that she will not go into labor after more than 42 weeks, or if the baby is already getting too large earlier than 40 weeks, the doctor will induce labor. That is the number they shoot for.

In any case, the best way to confirm paternity is a DNA test post-partum.
