Paternity Test: For Peace of Mind
If you have had more than one partner, it is natural for you to want to know who the father of your baby is. Different reasons to establish paternity include the need to collect support financially or emotionally, or simply for the peace of mind that accompanies knowing for sure.
Paternity testing from an accredited laboratory typically costs between Rs11500.00 and Rs.20000.00 in India, depending on the company where you are getting it tested and the type of paternity testing you choose.
Why is establishing Paternity important?
Why is establishing paternity important?
Paternity gives your child…..
1. A sense of identity and belonging.
2. Increased likelihood to know about diseases or disorders that exist in the father’s family.
3. Entitlement to the father’s financial and economic benefits, such as child support, health insurance, social security, pensions and veterans benefits.
4. The right to inherit from the father in the event of his death.
5. Establishing paternity is a must, in order to get a child support order.
Types of Paternity Testing:
-
Postnatal (after your child’s birth) DNA testing:
- Blood collection and testing
- Buccal swab (cheek swab) collection and testing
- Umbilical cord collection and testing
- Other sample collection and testing (semen, tissue, hair, etc.)
-
Prenatal (before your child’s birth) DNA testing:
- Amniocentesis: This test is performed in the second trimester, anywhere from the 14th-20th weeks of pregnancy. During this procedure, the doctor uses ultrasound to guide a thin needle into your uterus, through your abdomen. The needle draws out a small amount of amniotic fluid, which is tested. Risks include a small chance of harming the baby and miscarriage. Other side effects may include cramping, leaking of amniotic fluid, and vaginal bleeding. A doctor’s consent is needed to do this procedure for paternity testing.
- Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS): This test consists of a thin needle or tube which a doctor inserts from the vagina, through the cervix, guided by an ultrasound, to obtain chorionic villi. Chorionic villi are little finger-like pieces of tissue attached to the wall of the uterus. The chorionic villi and the fetus come from the same fertilized egg, and have the same genetic makeup. This testing can be done earlier in pregnancy from the 10th-13th weeks. A doctor’s consent is needed to do this procedure for paternity testing.
When paternity tests are done for legal reasons, strict chain-of-custody procedures are employed by the laboratory to ensure that samples are safe and free from tampering. Photos and/or other identifying information may be taken from those to be tested, and samples are stored and transported in tamper-proof packaging. Samples may also not be collected or transported by any of the parties involved in the case.
Can I use the DNA test results in court? Many companies now offer court-approved tests, but also lower cost “curiosity testing.” If you aren’t sure if you will need the results for a court case, it is probably worth the extra cost to go ahead and have a court-approved test done.
Since DNA is present in all living cells, various types of specimens are suitable for paternity testing. Samples for genetic testing are often taken by a swab from the inside of the mouth, but blood samples may also be used.

The Pregnancy Test $3.95 Ordinarily, I’m a fan of pink–lovely color, does smashing things for the complexion. But not when it’s the bright, glaring stripe staring back at me on the pregnancy test. Then, pink is the color of major oops, of morning sickness, of boyfriends who seemed decent but now are part of some Jerk Witness Protection Program. Still, I’ve got a few things going for me–bitter humor, a divine right to eat till I’m the size of Marlon Brando, and good friends who’ve managed to get me a job interview with one Damien Sharpton: in need of a personal assistant, and some say, a good, swift kick in the arse. If you want to make a lasting impression, by all means, toss your cookies in your future boss’s wastebasket, which is located directly between his excruciatingly sexy legs. Apparently, Mr. Gorgeous-But-Unbearably-Anti-Social must like personal assistants who violate his trash can, because I got the job. And if I can avoid him via text messaging for the next seven months of health insurance, everything will be just fine. Except that he’s just asked–no, insisted–that I go with him on a business trip to the Caribbean. Gulp, Ordinarily, this would be cause for celebration. Ordinarily, I’d shave my legs, pack my bikini, revel in day-glo drinks and my seething lust for Mr. Swarthy-And-Secretive. But there’s nothing ordinary about this situation…which means it could be absolutely extraordinary. |
