No, it will not affect paternity testing. Most paternity tests are done on the blood of the child after the child is born. Depending on the lab and the state you live in, testing will vary.
Testing can be done on the infant through blood draw, cheek swab or cord blood obtained at birth.
Prior to the birth, an aminiocentesis or chronic villi sampling can establish paternity. However, it is unlikely that these invasive tests would be done unless there is a problem with the pregnancy.
For more information, you may want to contact your state’s website on paternity or contact an attorney who deals with this type of law.
