ummm...i'm going to go against the grain here and say yes. IF two eggs were fertilized simultaneously, and if one fetus dies, then the other fetus COULD theoretically end up with some of the genetic makeup of his/her twin - a condition called chimerism. So maybe yes...but it's a long shot

No and this is why...
Single Child Pregnancy
If you are expecting one child, a single sperm and a single egg create a baby once a sperm has penetrated the egg causing fertilization no other spem can penetrate the egg.. That fertilized egg then needs to implant in the wall of the uterus to become a baby... The sperm remaining outside the egg are repelled from the egg ....
Fraturnal Twins Pregnancy
If you are expecting fraturnal twins, Fraturnal twins are created when two eggs are released and fertilized by 2 different sperm.... In which case one mans sperm could fertilize one egg while the other mans sperm could fertilize the other egg and both eggs could implant.... Making you pregnant with fraturnal twins with different fathers...
Identical Twins Pregnancy
Identical twins are created with one sperm and one egg after the egg is fertilized (see Single Child Pregnancy) the egg divides into two halves creating twins... Identical twins can not have different fathers...
In higher order multiples (triplets and more) the same applys either more than one egg was released and each egg was fertilized by a seperate sperm .... Or a single egg was released and fertilized by a single sperm... Then that egg divided into parts creating identical multiples...

yes, it is possible. incredibly rare, but possible. its called Chimerism, also known as the vanishing twin and happens early on before you even know youre pregnant. if the woman releases two eggs and has sex with two men, and both were to fertalize one of the eggs, it could happen. i believe there are less than 50 known cases of Chimerism.
this is from some website:
Basically, it seems, two separate fertilized human embryos which “should” have become fraternal twins, instead fuse together and form one child. This child receives BOTH sets of genes from the two different embryos. Until DNA testing was somewhat common, this went completely undetected. True human Chimeras can pass on either set of genes to their children, while they only have one set specifically in their blood (so paternal blood tests might have false negatives). Or they could leave traces of one set of DNA at a crime scene and have the other set show up in testing.

You can sex close to together with both men and not know which one is the father and you can see traits in almost any child to look like someone else. I thought my daughter at birth had some traits of Toby Kieth but I have never been with him. It was the Blonde hair and blue eyes.
If you were to have twins then yes both men could be the father if they were fraternal.

No--absolutely not possible. The DNA that creates the building "information" for a human being is complete when one egg, and one sperm meet. No more, no less.
(and mitch, above, is taking an impossily long shot--chimerism can only occur in genetically full siblings, in utero.....it's *impossible*, to mix *genetic* traits --which would imply mixing genetic material--when in fact, there are two completely distinct sets of genetic coding , from two separate fathers, in the case of fraternal twins)

No, because in humans there is only one sperm, from the male, that makes it to the egg, female. From there they start to grow. It doesn't matter how many sperm are trying to impregnate, only one is going to be accepted by the egg. If twins are going to result of this, it is still from one sperm and one egg uniting. I could go into more explanation of why twins (identical or fraternal) are born, but it would be very lengthy.
Now cats and dogs, to name a few, are very different. They can become impregnated by several donors and have litter that are very different in color, characteristic, etc.

No offense but if you're having sex with 2 men you really don't need to be pregnant. If you can't control your own life how in the world will you be able to handle a baby and teach him/her the morals and ethics they will need to survive in this world. I believe you should invest in birth control. But in answer to your question there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that 2 different men can get you pregnant at one time!

No. People have genetic makeup from only one father and one mother. Even if she has identical twins, there can only be one biological father. If she has fraternal twins and sleeps with more than one man within a 2 day period, each child could have a different father.

Sperm can live to inform the tale in a lady's body as a lot as seven days previous to ovulation, so if she had sex with numerous adult males in that element and he or she released 2 eggs, it could be accessible. even with the indisputable fact that, the added present day sperm might want to have an earnings, because extra of them might want to have survived through the years.

1 egg + 1 sperm cell make a child. You cannot possibly have two biological fathers
