What is a prenatal paternity test?
A prenatal paternity test is a method used to determine if the man is likely to be the baby’s biological father before the baby is born. It’s safe, doesn’t hurt the baby, and can be done quite early in the pregnancy.
Unlike regular paternity tests that are done after a baby’s birth, this test is done during pregnancy. It is a simple cheek swab from the alleged father.
Who is Prenatal Paternity Testing For?
Expectant Mothers. Women who wish to confirm the biological father of their child during pregnancy for personal, emotional, or health-related reasons.
Alleged Fathers. Men who are potential fathers and want to determine if they are the biological parent before the baby’s birth.
Couples. Partners who seek clarity and assurance about the paternity of their child during pregnancy.
Legal and Custody Planning. Individuals who need paternity information for legal reasons, such as child support or custody arrangements, before the baby arrives.
Healthcare Planning. Parents who want to prepare for any medical or health considerations that might be important if the child inherits specific genetic traits from the father.
