Understanding Prenatal Paternity Testing

Prenatal paternity testing is a way to compare DNA from the unborn baby with DNA from a possible father during pregnancy. The goal is to determine biological paternity before birth so you can plan for the future, address relationship questions, or prepare for possible legal steps after your child arrives.

Many clients who come to our Springfield location are feeling uncertain about next steps. Some want clarity before the baby is born so they can involve the right people in medical decisions or birth plans. Others are thinking ahead about child support, custody discussions, or simply want to reduce anxiety for everyone involved.

Our approach uses a noninvasive prenatal DNA test that relies on a simple sample from the pregnant individual and a cheek swab from the possible father. We work to make the experience as straightforward as possible. Our team explains the process in clear language, answers your questions, and treats every situation with sensitivity and privacy.

How Our Prenatal Testing Process Works

Knowing exactly what will happen from the time you contact us until you receive results can make this experience feel more manageable. At our Springfield facility, we follow a clear process that helps keep your visit efficient and your information protected.

Flexible Scheduling

When you first reach out, a member of our team will talk with you about your situation and help you decide which testing option best fits your needs. We then schedule an appointment time that works for you at our local office. Appointments help keep wait times low and allow us to prepare for your visit, although we do our best to accommodate urgent needs when possible.

Private and Comfortable Sample Collection

On test day, you will check in at the front desk and complete any remaining paperwork. Our staff maintains a private and professional environment, and our certified collectors walk you through each step before beginning. 

A prenatal paternity test entails:

• We collect a small blood sample from the mother's arm. 
• For the possible father, we collect a cheek swab DNA sample from the inside of the mouth.

After collection, we label and secure all samples carefully. Our collectors follow established protocols to help protect the integrity of each sample and to support accurate results. Samples are then sent through our DNA testing process using proven methods and current technology.

Results Delivery

You can typically expect your results within 7 to 10 business days. If you need answers more quickly, we also offer an expedited option that can return results in approximately 3 to 5 business days for an additional fee. Our team will explain both timelines so you can decide what works best for your situation and budget.

When your report is ready, we share the outcome with you in a private and secure way. We discuss how you would like to receive your results during your visit or when you schedule. Our staff works carefully to protect your confidentiality at every stage, from check-in through final reporting.

Eligibility, Limitations & Test Options

Not every situation is a good fit for prenatal paternity testing, and we believe it is important to be very clear about that. Our goal is to help you understand whether this type of test can provide reliable answers in your case and to explain any limitations that may apply.

When a Prenatal Test Can be Taken

Timing is one key factor. This kind of testing can only be performed after 7 weeks of pregnancy for the results to be dependable. If you are not sure how far along you are, we recommend discussing your timeline with your medical provider, then calling us so we can talk through the best window for testing.

Limitations of Prenatal Paternity Tests

There are also important restrictions related to the number of babies and the potential fathers. Prenatal paternity tests are not suitable for pregnancies with twins, triplets, or more. In addition, when two possible fathers are closely related by blood, testing often cannot provide a clear, definitive result. In those situations, we explain what may be possible and suggest alternatives when appropriate.

Legal and Non-Legal Testing Options

We also offer different ways to use your results. Some families want information for personal knowledge and planning. Others anticipate that they may need documentation for court or other official purposes after the baby is born. We can discuss options that follow specific procedures so results may be used in legal settings. Our team will outline the differences at your appointment so you understand which type of test best fits your needs.

If you are unsure whether your pregnancy or family situation is eligible, we encourage you to call our Springfield office. We can ask a few basic questions and provide guidance on whether this service is likely to give you the information you are seeking.
