That's a horrible mess and I can't believe you passed high school. There's nothing you can do until there is a baby then you can get a paternity test. In the meantime please use protection.

Damn man. Harsh. True in the second sentence, but damn. Straight for the groin.

Sometimes harsh words are what people need.

"Amniocentesis" is no problem.

"Tries" is a bridge too far.

Internet.

[–]theletterqwertyQuality Contributor 24 ポイント25 ポイント  (1子コメント)

TL;DR: OP, an adult, thinks an adult woman might be pregnant with his kid. She's agreed to have a paternity test once the child has been born, which hasn't happened yet.

she thinks amniocentesis is dangerous

She's right.

what the fucks up with her pregnancy and why it keeps being pushed back

The human body is not a clockwork machine.

I know I can file at family court to make her get a paternity test but if she try's to keep him away from me(I have never hurt or done anything to harm her ever, not a bad guy so there's no reason to keep him from me) is this grounds for me to file for sole custody?

No.

first, most women do not get ultrasounds right away. Since she was actively having sex, they probably placed her estimated due date based off of last menstrual period. Later on, when she had ultrasounds, they adjusted the due date based off of measurements.

Sticking a needle in to draw fluid out of the sack is dangerous. It wouldn't be recommended for just testing which can be done after the baby is born.

Hopefully you're not the father since it'll be a rough 18 years. Look and see if your state has some sort of father notification system in place.

They didn't get that shiz 4 weeks wrong, though, then schedule her for induction and then cancel that induction and then she's scheduled for another induction for today but is somewhere else decorating Christmas trees. Scheduled inductions start at like 4am.

[–]Fuego_pants 8 ポイント9 ポイント  (6子コメント)

Mine was supposed to start at 1 am. It's like they choose when the enormous preggo will be most cranky and select that time.

I agree there may be something fishy going on here.

[–]Divine18 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (4子コメント)

Oh my I'm so sorry. They scheduled my induction for 9am at least. But yeah sometimes they schedule and test things (glucose test anyone?) right when the big preggo lady is most likely to decapitate someone. 😂

[–]Fuego_pants 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (3子コメント)

It worked out. I went into labor before my induction started.

I was told that inductions start so late due to insurance and their definition of what is "overnight."

[–]BUBBLYSTRING 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Meanwhile I'm mad because I'll be induced in a couple days and my OB told me today that we'd start at 5am. Then she left to go figure out why she had me scheduled to come in a day before the induction and a nurse came in and told me the induction would be at 4am. Then the nurse left and the OB came back and started writing down 5am, but then the nurse reappeared and said, "No. I told her 4am." Guess what time I'm being induced?

[–]tlndfors 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Guess what time I'm being induced?

I have no idea but I am on the edge of my seat here!

I'm expecting the next twist in the story to be that behind you on the wall of the OB's office were two posters, one saying "4 AM" and one saying "5 AM"... and you never saw the OB again after she walked out.

LOL was this inspired by Key and Peele?

[–]taylorcatz 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yes they can. Want to know one method of calculating a due date? Take 3 months and add 1 week to the last menstrual period. Sounds real accurate there. Some women are not very good at remembering their last menstrual periods to begin with.

  1. Sounds like she wants nothing to do woth you and is lying about when the induction is. Do you blame her? Do you really think she would want her ex to show up at the hospital?

Also, I doubt they will just order a paternity test right there. I don't even think our hospital lab would be able to do a paternity test (maybe as a send out).

I'm very confused about what you're trying to say here. The way I'm reading this does not reconcile with how they initially calculated the baby's due date for any of my 4 pregnancies (by adding 40 weeks to the first day of my LMP). Can you please link to a source that might provide clarity? For the record, I'm that one who never, ever knows when her LMP was. Nope. No idea. I have to ask my husband. At any rate, I've been researching instances of medical professionals getting baby's gestational age wrong by a full 4 weeks and cannot find evidence to support this happening (let alone continuing to happen after the baby's due date, which is when this 4 week adjustment would have had to occur); there are plenty of people who ask if it can happen, but it looks like 2 weeks give or take in either direction is the standard for error.

Edit:

I wanted to clarify what's wrong here. This woman claimed to be due on the 28th of October up until that very day. On that very day, since she wasn't dilated, they scheduled her to be induced a week later. That's all good and fine. These claims make it seem to me that she was still asserting at that time that the baby was due in October.

2 weeks after that, when OP asked why she had yet to be induced, she then claimed that 'at some mystery point in the pregnancy they pushed her due date back by 4 weeks.' Considering the fact that she was still claiming to be due on October 28th on October 28th, they would actually have had to push her due date back after October 28th. What did she mean by "at some point the due date was changed" as if this change occurred at an earlier stage of the pregnancy, the time frame for which she could no longer be certain? If they had truly pushed her due date into November 'at some point,' she obviously wouldn't have texted OP to let him know why she hadn't had the baby by October.

While a baby's due date is originally merely an estimation based on when you tell your doctor that your LMP occurred and is subject to change after your first u/s (and at various other times, possibly at the OB's passing fancy), she was still telling him October 28th after said first u/s (when the date is most likely to change), her anatomy u/s, possible other u/sounds, and every single appointment up until October 28th. Then, even on October 28th, after asserting 'Ugh, no baby yet on my due date they are gonna induce me,' she changed her tune to "Oh, at some point they changed my due date by 4 weeks." It just doesn't make any sense. There are other things wrong here, like with how you can't easily tell baby's age by its size later in the pregnancy. I just see no way that they would have told her, after telling her the baby was due on October 28th even on October 28th itself, that they would then postpone the due date by 4 weeks, and then another week after that and then another week after that. It makes no sense.

What are we even talking about? There is no baby.

Edit: I am at the OB right now and I read this to her and she laughed and said "no."

[–]omg_pwnies 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (5子コメント)

I'm with you. I'd be curious to see if OP ever physically saw the girl since the supposed pregnancy.

[–]tyco118[S] 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (4子コメント)

I have seen pictures of her belly and sonogram via friends social media accounts

[–]omg_pwnies 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (3子コメント)

But you haven't seen her in person? I mean, I can photoshop a pic of myself and send you a sonogram and say that's my baby, but that doesn't make it true.

[–]BUBBLYSTRING 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yup, you can legitimately purchase fake pregnancy kits online, too. And women can and have faked pregnant bellies, it's in the news often enough. Especially like with the recent murder of the one pregnant lady by her friend who was faking pregnancy and stole the baby from the womb.

[–]tyco118[S] 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Correct but she's not sending me these things. She's posting them on her social media page. So yes that could be a possibility

[–]omg_pwnies 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Doesn't mean she's not lying to all her friends, though.

[–]GnashtyBounce 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (1子コメント)

The things OP's potential baby's mama has said about her due date don't make good sense.

[–]BiondinaQuality Contributor 8 ポイント9 ポイント  (2子コメント)

make her get a paternity test

Say what?

[–]tyco118[S] -3 ポイント-2 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Just fill out these forms and file them at ur local family court. Then she will be hit with a summons to appear in court where a judge will tell her she legally has to get one.

[–]frisian2Quality Contributor 9 ポイント10 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nope it is more likely that the judge will tell you to wait untill the baby is actually born due to that being in the best interest of the child.

[–]Akavinceblack 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (1子コメント)

There is a non invasive, safe paternity test for use during pregnancy but it is expensive.

Just wait until the baby is born.

[–]mekender 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (0子コメント)

any advice legal or otherwise would be very much appreciated

Stop sleeping with chicks that are already seeing someone else.

Stop sleeping with crazy chicks.

Be very glad that it appears that this chick was not actually pregnant.

If she is indeed pregnant or just had a baby, hope like hell that it is not yours and/or she does not come after you if it is.

Learn to use paragraphs and punctuation.

[–]laaarg 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (2子コメント)

So... you've been sleeping with Mary Tudor?

Look. There's nothing you can do about this until the baby is born. When the kid is born, count back from 9. If you haven't slept with her in that time, cut off all contact. If you have, take the test.

[–]aelindsey2002 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Count back 40-41 weeks to be sure. So closer to 9 and a half months, a week longer if she's late and being induced.

[–]EEJR 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I do find it a little strange that the due date was pushed back an entire month, and that they keep pushing the induction date, most hospitals don't like to go past week 41 in pregnancy, unless there measurements are still under, but I doubt it when they changed her due date to November.

I personally think there is no baby, or she already had the baby but is keeping it on the DL (unless you still see pictures of her with a belly, but postpartum moms still look pregnant afterwards).

[–]FyrestarOmega 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Either she was never pregnant or she already had the baby and is trying to hide it from you.
