Imagine one day, your faithfulness as a wife comes into question all because of a paternity test. You know you never cheated on your husband, yet the evidence is startling. That’s what happened to Reddit user u/fullyfaithfulwife. This is her story:
I don’t know how it happened and I haven’t been able to stop crying all day. I never cheated. I love my husband, we’ve been together since college and he’s the love of my life, he’s handsome and kind and while I’ve slept with two other people, both were before we got together. There is no other potential father for our daughter.
We were married already and actively trying to have a baby. I never cheated, I never would cheat, and I don’t know why he took that stupid test because I would never, ever cheat, but it came back negative, and now he thinks he’s not her dad. I don’t know how to convince him it was a faulty test, and I’m so scared.
An Update
Hi everyone. First off, I wanted to thank everyone who reached out, my original post got so much attention, it was hard to get to everything, but I ended up making a list of plans, and tests I wanted to get done.
My husband was (understandably) distrustful of me for a while, but he apologized for the way he acted (which I didn’t need) and said that he wouldn’t try to kick me out of our home. He did say, though, that if every test came back and I’d cheated, then he was going to “go scorched earth.”
We did a few tests. Blood paternity tests for him and me, and our daughter, and we had an appointment with a chimerism specialist coming up, but that got canceled because, well, some of you guessed it, but my daughter is not biologically mine either. I don’t know how this happened, but a police officer came to our house and took our statements, and we’re suing the hospital where I gave birth. I don’t know what happened to my baby, and that is terrifying.
I have my husband back, but my whole world was still upended, and I just wish he’d never taken that stupid test. I’ve been sleeping in my daughter’s room, and I’m so afraid that she’s going to be taken away from me, but at the same time, I want to know where my biological daughter is and if she’s okay. I pray to g*d she’s okay.
