You need to come clean to your partner. The sooner the better. Hiding something so important will do more damage than good. Definitely get a DNA test done. Like troubledtoomuch said, you can have one done while you're still pregnant. Also if there's more than one man you'd been with, let them know what's up so everything's out in the open.

First of all June 8th was not a Friday but a Sunday (check it out) My mother went on the 9th to the hospital and my sister's birthday was also on the Monday 9th of June so I remember clearly (and just checked the calendar)

Anyway, If you got pregnant around the 8th of june and you had sex with the other man a week before I asume the baby should be your partners'. I mean, only if you had sex with the other one like two days before the exact day you got pregnant it could be his (the other man's), but if it was more than two days from the exact day you got pregnant I really doubt it will be the other man's baby.

And please stop sleeping around. You can get HPV from anybody (it doesn't have symptoms) and eventually die of cervical cancer.

Only a DNA test will confirm who the father is. However, I believe that it is not possible to get the DNA of the fetus until at least 13 weeks into the pregnancy. Here is an article on how it is done:

It is also fairly expensive.

Yos agony auntIf you've slept with several different men recently and you're pregnant, then it's very possible the child isn't your partners.

You need to ask yourself how you've ended up in a situation where you could be pregnant by different men, it's not a great place to be.

Also understand that there is no more painful thing for a man to hear than that his partner is pregnant by another man. Very few men will stay with you in that situation.

Don't tell him right away. I suggest you get a DNA paternity check. Speak to your doctor who should be able to help you. You'll need some DNA from your partner (either a hair or similar). Then they'll be able to tell you if it's his or not. Once you know, you can decide what to do.
