From a male.
Be very brave and tell each of them there is a chance that they are not the father. Yes, they may well get angry, but that's the fact and they'll just have to take it. Have none of them present at all and when you arrive at the hospital, make sure the staff know that you don't want any of those males near you and warn them in advance of the problem. That way if there is any trouble, they'll deal with it. What's most important is you and your baby. Then, once your son is born, have a DNA test done. It's the only way to be sure. Lost of luck.

Well if you get to nervous about the whole thing you could always say
*You might be the father of my baby*
Scratch -Or four other guys- part of it.
I would use that as a last resort. Btw can you tell us more about these guys? Is one of them your bf? Are any of them your close friends? So that way the Aunts could further instruct you better

Tell them it's great of them to want to support you at the birth, but you'd rather go through it on your own/with your mum and girlfriends or something. You can't really have 1 or 2 of them there and then have them turn out not to be the father later on. And yeah, like the others said, get a DNA test as soon as you can after the birth. You can start finding out about that now, before the birth, and collect samples from the potential fathers now so that you can get it finalised more quickly after the baby is born :)

I'd get a blood test too, as that is very fast and can rule out a few right off the bat, teh Dr. will know in minutes if one or more of them can not be the father due to blood type. The DNA test will be required when some of them can't be ruled out. I'd get them to give samples for both.
Good luck- you NEED TO DO THIS... for everyone's sake.

Do the five men all know about each other? Or do they all think they were the only one?
You need to sit down with all of them, and be honest with them. Tell each of them, that they may not be the father of your child. Once the baby is born, you will need to get a DNA test done, so that you can prove which of them is the father. He has a right to be in your (his and your) childs life.
It is important that no lies remain between you and the prospective father. IF you want him to be part of your childs life, you need to be totally honest with him, and that starts by telling him that you slept with 4 other men around the same time as you concieved your child.
I think it is honorable that all 5 want to be part of your life and to help you, just be prepared for them to back off when they find out they are not "the one". They may well be angry, and they will probably call you all sorts of names, especially as it appears they all think they are the father.
Also, in future, make sure you use contraception. The pill AND a condom just to be sure. In some ways you have been lucky. By having unprotected sex, you only got pregnant, you could well have picked up any number of STD's which COULD have left you infertile, or with a lifelong medical condition, or even something more fatal.
For your own safety, in future please please be more careful.

Well, I think it's amazing that all five of the boys want to support you, when there are plenty of girls who have had to go through pregnancy, childbirth and motherhood completely alone. You have to tell them all, do it now while you are pregnant and if it looks like they will end up fighting, fake pregancy pains and pretend it's causing you distress.
You need to find out the identity of your child's father so your baby can have and know it's dad. Do it for yourself and your unborn child and do it now!
