This story is about a young mother dealing with trust issues after her boyfriend asks for a paternity test for their newborn daughter. This request brings up feelings of doubt and questions about trust, just when they should be celebrating the birth of their child
She explained what happened.
My boyfriend of 7.5 years and I just had our daughter almost three weeks ago, and now he’s asking for a paternity test. We met at work—I’m a nurse, and he’s a surgeon who works a lot. I’m not working right now, so I stay home while he supports us.
I’ve always been faithful to him, but he has made some mistakes over the years, which I forgave. He told his coworkers in the operating room that he asked for a paternity test, which upset me. He says they understand why I’m upset.
