I got a younger girl pregnant not so long ago. I paid for the test, I was happy she got pregnant, but she married a boyfriend I didn't know about. Don't get an abortion you can never forgive yourself for killing your own child, and will also regret it when you see other children. Talk with the guy, consider possible compromises together, what are each other's basic fears and needs, try to be flexible. The test can be done for a few hundred, I think he might even want to pay for that, since it might give him more certainty one way or the other. Don't panic, there are plenty of people who have kids under more difficult circumstances than you, and later they are proud and happy. Also, wait till the child is born to do the test, because while the child is growing in the womb this kind of needle intrusion can sometimes damage the fetus, so wait, after birth it is just a saliva swab.

About $800 after the child is born, or it can be done as part of an amniocentisis at 20 weeks gestation to rule out specific diseases and to confirm paternity. An amnio costs about $2000 with an additional cost for the paternity test.

A paternity test is NOT 12 dollars. That is the cost of a pregnancy test. a PATERNITY test can cost anywhere between 400-500 US Dollars.

You had a part in that too. You both got you pregnant!! His poor wife! $600.00 and it is complicated before the child is born but it can be done b/f the baby is born. My friend had an amnio b/c she is 41 and she was able to do a paternity test.

I would call the local hospital and ask to speak to someone in the laboratory and they will usually know the numbers of the company's they go through for DNA testing. You can call them and do some price matching. The test can usually be done in the hospital lab and mailed out to the company. and if there is no court order involved the results will be mailed to u directly or sometimes u can call to get them.

I don't know, but I do know that they are expensive - they are not $12! However, I think you have bigger problems here than how much a paternity test is going to cost.

Probably a lot of money, but you shouldn't be involved with a married man in the first place. I say you get what you deserve. He will never leave his wife and forcing him to pay for child support (sounds like you tricked him somehow to force him to leaver her) will only hurt her and any children they have. You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to break up a marriage.

It depends on where you live. Usually they charge you half the cost and the potential father half the cost. In Indiana they cost about $250 per person.
