More then likely it is yours, the timing is right, please get an education in the next couple months so you can teach your child how to spell and speak correctly.

Is she heading into her 7th month or at the end of it? That could make a difference. How many weeks pregnant is she? That could help answer your question. The doctor's could be off by a couple of weeks either way. There is a really good chance that the baby is your baby. The only way to know 100% is through a DNA test when the baby is born. If you love your wife and she loves you then she would understand your reasons for wanting it. The doctors go by the 1st day of the last menstrual cycle when determining the due date. The woman, however, usually ovulates about 2 weeks after that. When having intercourse, the average sperm can last anywhere form 3-6 days (some could last a day or 2 longer). So if you had sex with her before you left and she ovulated a few days after you left and conceived then, then the baby could be your's. It is confusing, but that is how the body works. Jsut be there for her and good luck to you guys :)

EEEKKKKK.... Maybe not. You are actually not pregnant the first two weeks of your pregnancy. The doctor goes the off the last day of your cycle. So you really get pregnant two weeks after your cycle when your egg drops. Yeah it confused me too. And I have two boys.
So that means that you may not be..... Sad to say. But your best bet is to be a good husband and dont doubt her or distance your self from her or the pregnancy. Cuz every women's body is different. And you Dont wanna put up a barrier and miss out on all joys of the baby. Just when the baby is born get tested!!!

Well a pregnancy actually lasts 40 weeks...not nine months. :)
So depending on how many WEEKS she is, you may or may not be the father.
Give her the benefit of the doubt and be involved in the pregnancy. Once the baby arrives, if you still question it's paternity...have a test!

Your normally pregnant for 10 months. They never count the first month because that is the time when the fertilized egg implants itself in the mothers uterus and so forth. So yes, it can still be your baby. Trust your wife!!!!

You could be, there's usually around a 2 week leeway that could go either way. If your in doubt, after the baby is born, you could get a paternity test. Or if you & your wife have different blood types & the baby has your type, that's a strong possibility that he/she could be yours.

This question is really unclear. How many weeks pregnant is your wife? When did you "go out" and why have you been gone for 7 months?

Only a DNA test will know for sure that biologically the baby is yours. Legally, however, the baby is yours since you are married to the mother.

If she is exactly 7months along then she got pregnant (had sex) 6 1/2 months ago. Because you go from the last period not from when you had sex.
go by weeks not months.... if she is 28 weeks along then for you to be the dad she was with you 26 weeks ago.

I think you need to be clearer on what you mean by you've "been out 7 months and a week"
