i have a sister in law who recently had a beautiful baby girl in october but as soon as she was born, is as soon as she did not know who her daughters biological father was, she claims that she thinks because she was with 2 different men basically around the same time, she thinks that maybe BOTH of them are her daughters father(s)....is this possible?

It is not impossible, just almost impossible. Only one egg is released during ovulation. If that is the case, she will be one of only a few woman in the world this happened to ever.

She should have a paternity test done as soon as possible to find out who the twin's daddy is and stop this crazy talk.

Hi ashleynron4ever,

No it isn't possible. She will have to have a DNA Test done on the baby to determine which of the two men she slep with is the father.
