Yes, ask your doctor, but I think it is safest for the child to wait until after birth.

For a paternity test you need a DNA sample from the baby, which before birth is only obtainable via amniocentesis. Most doctors will not do this procedure without a valid reason (the mother's age, health factors). More likely you'll have to wait until the baby is born.
Amniocentesis is typically done when the pregnancy is around 4 months.

Yes it is possible. They can do it at around 15-17 weeks I believe. There are risks with getting the amnio though. YOu can have a miscarriage. There is a 1 out of 100 chance to have a miscarriage through the amnio. There is also a way that they take a piece of the placenta and that is a 2 out of 100 chance of you having a miscarriage. So really consider doing it. I was going to have one done but personally I don't think that it's worth risking my babies life at all.

You probalby can, but i don't see the doctor doing that unless there is something that could be wrong with the baby and they would need to know the fathers fam, history or something. I sure however it is done would be painful, and i would just wait if there wasnt a super good reason to know. Why put the baby in harms way if its not needed.

Yes, it is possible to do, but it isn't the safest route for the baby. The safest route (and probably the one your doctor would recommend) would be to wait until the baby is born. Once the baby is born, the proceedure is very simple for everyone involved. You'll get a quick answer and you can move forward from there.

I think a lot of bad women here in this state are going to dislike this, so it's a good thing. I'm for everybody taking responsibility for their own actions.

its possible but its very risky for the mother and the baby.
They need to stick a needle deep into you and get out a sample of the babies DNA.
Its very expensive and most doctors wont even do it.

i have seen it happen before. You have to talk to your doctor about that but you can get it when you are 5 months pregnant.The only thing about that it have to be court ordered.
