Ask the Doctor

Is this my baby?

Published by

My girlfriend from whom I briefly separated seven months ago suddenly appeared on my doorsteps last week with the claim that I am the owner of her six months pregnancy. How do I know that her claim is true as I don’t want to be saddled with another man’s baby.

The only reliable way to determine a baby’s paternity is through a Paternity DNA test. Where the facilities are available, the test can be done before the baby is born (Prenatal Test). However, the most popular test is the one done after the baby has been born (Postnatal Test) and is now available at many Specialist and Teaching Hospitals in the country.
