You're very welcome, if you're still worried then maybe your MW or GP will be kind enough to take the swabs for you? Perhaps if you contact the company, they'll be able to tell you what their policy is regarding messed up DNA samples - like whether it happens, whether they'll retest etc?

I'd still recommend getting quotes from private labs, you might find there's not much in it but my friend said her local clinics wanted upwards of like £299! :O

Oh god most iv seen is 150.. and that is expensive.. i think ill be ok with the home test .. im guna have to ring up at the right time cause iv seen there can be hiden costs aka you pay £99 and then after they expect another payment for the results :O but thats dodgy dealing i think .. ill get my mum to give them a ring where ever i get a home kit from.. and ill talk to my midwife at my next appointment i think just to get her advice .. thanx honestly youve helped me alot its all driving me insane with the dna test i want to think about baby and happy thoughts not all the stress of sorting that lol

I would be careful about where you can one from I know theres a lot of companies out there trying to rip people off. xx

Yeah thats what i mean im really unsure but maybe if i ask my midwife she will be able to help me out or something .. or even my connextions advisor who i see every 2week can help me better then just going on internet and picking one i spose

You should ask him to pay for it. Better yet, MAKE him pay for it.. If he isn't prepared to then tell him to shove it.

You have better things to spend your money on, i.e a pram.

Sorry, but what a complete dick.

Oh my god boo! He sounds like a complete arse!!! I garentee he's only saying it to f*ck you around and mess your head up. I wouldn't play into his nasty hands sweetheart. If I were you I wouldn't bother with a DNA test and I'd put my foot down and just set him striaght.

"The babys yours end of. I ain't getting no DNA test and spending all my fucking money (and what little I have!) on something I know is right when I could be using it to spend on OUR child on things they NEED. Our baby doesn't NEED a DNA test to prove your their father. So take it or leave it you can be in his life or not."

That is seriously what I'd say if my fella turned round and said that to me right this minute. I'd go absolutly ape!!! Seriously babe don't even THINK about wasting your money on some idot like that, and if he still insists on having one then you can tell him HE'S paying or they'll be NO DNA test. END OF. Unless your really really unsure yourself I wouldn't give him the time of day for asking to put your baby at risk because his silly silly mind games.

Think of all the lovely baby things you could but for the price of that !

Urrrrgh!

Good luck hun!! Hope everything turns out okay

If i dont do it though he will just take it that its not his .. he prob would pay for it but i know it would be easier for me to just get it done with tbh .. i dont mind paying i havent got loads of money im already struggling to pay for stuff but it dont help that i didnt expect to get left to buy everything etc least if he didnt leave me he would of helped me out just would of made a difference but cant do anything about it i spose.. it has to be done cause hes one of them people who want it to be writen infront of him so he knows he wont take my word for it .. hes too stuburn, i just didnt want the birth certificate to be blank.. but if it comes to that it does.. but if a dna isnt done.. and i have his name on the birth certificate he will take me to court because he will have to pay csa.. and he wont want to pay that if hes saying its not his child.. and then the court make you pay for a dna i dont know weather its both of you or just one .. but i read online about it .. ill have to see nearer the time i spose but i dont really have much contact with him now just cause what appened in past and what he did .. im stil close to the other person who he 'thinks' it is and he told me he would pay half for the dna with me just to show him its not his cause if it shows its not the other guys he will have to believe me as thats the only person he 'thinks' could be the other father :S .. but i think guna be able to tell when baby arrives theres guna be a look a like to my ex cause its first boy in my family.. and his gene is strong as he says so .. all i said is if babys got brown eyes then that prooves it cause my family all have blue or green.. and the other guy has blue

sorry bout how long it is got carried away lol

There is a Dad i t=know who had to get DNA tests done but ordered a test from Canada as it is cheaper over there?. So it is possible!

becyboo dont ever go by colour of the eyes either!!!!! Its not reliable AT ALL and it can take years before the true colour sets in!

I know i realised this ages ago but tbh if the baby will have features straight away of him just cause he has 'strong' genes as his family said wel a dna test guna have to be done 1 way or another if he doesnt pay i will and get it sorted .. least my mum knows that iv got to do one and knows all about it so she can help me out wish prenatal ones werent dangerous id do that if they werent just to get it done and proove stuff .
