Today, a DNA test proved that my 2-month-old daughter isn't mine. The real father is my girlfriend's husband, whom she married last year when she lied to me about going on a vacation. We've been together for three years and I never knew. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Mix up
Today, my husband presented me with a DNA test proving that our newborn daughter isn't his. Confused, I got her tested again. She's not a match to me either. FML
Today, my now ex-fiancée confessed that "our" child is most likely actually hers and my father's. FML
A sand castle
Today, I took a DNA test and it turns out that the person who I thought was my dad is not my actual dad and my real dad is his best friend. FML
Shambles
Today, I found out my husband isn’t the biological father of our daughter when we consulted about the bone marrow transplant formula she needs for her leukemia. I don’t know who the real father is because I had a drunken one-night stand at a friend’s birthday party. My marriage and daughter’s life is in shambles. FML
Family coincidence
Today with a DNA test, I found out that my husband is my half brother. 30 years ago his father made a donation to the sperm bank my mother used, and I’m the result. To make matters worse, I’m pregnant. FML
Very mean spirited
Today, my dad's will included a DNA test he did on me when I was 3, proving I’m not his son. I thought we had a great relationship, but apparently he secretly hated me all these years for mom cheating, and decided to embarrass me in front of our family, half of whom it turns out I’m not related to. FML
Better late than never
Today, the guy I had a two-week long fling with and got pregnant by (while on birth control I might add), and who disappeared more than a decade ago after I told him, showed up at my door, demanding shared custody of my daughter. While he is her biological parent, she’s never met him and was terrified. FML
Family ties
Today, during divorce proceedings, I decided to have my kids DNA tested. Neither of my kids are mine. My daughter's real father is unknown but my son's DNA identifies him as related to me, but not as my son, so he’s more likely my nephew, meaning his dad is one of my brothers. FML
Today, I found out that my long-distance boyfriend just got married because his "real" girlfriend is pregnant. FML
Today, thanks to my wife's confession, I found out that the 14 year old child I've raised since I was 16 isn't related to me at all. But at least this narrows the real father down to one of three other guys. FML

You and the husband need to bond over your joint sense of betrayal, ditch the cheater, and raise the kid together like in My Two Dads! Whaddya say, OP? How about it?!

I am sad to say, but unless your name is written on that birth certificate as the father (and even then) there's little to no chance you'll be allowed visitation or custody. I feel so sorry for you and your situation. Everything you've had for the past three years is literally gone, and that baby is too. Even if you didn't care, and wanted to stay as her side man (Or eventual husband if she divorces), If she for whatever reason leaves you, would would never have custody rights with that little girl. Find therapy as soon as possible, because it's going to hit you before you know it. This is a huge deal. Again, I'm sorry OP.

On the bright side you don't have a kid! You can now focus on getting over her and improving your life

I feel bad for you, the baby, and the husband (only if he was unaware that the hoe was dating you too). I feel so sorry for kids who have a cheater as a parent.

I have so many questions. How do you have a child for 2 months and neither of you know about each other? The prenatal, birth, every night since...

Yeah I'm with you. this doesn't make sense.

This is a rare true FML. This sucks, OP. I'm so sorry! I hope you won't lose faith in all women, because I promise, we're all not like that and cannot possibly understand how someone would do such a thing!

this doesn't make sense. as a father surely you would want to be there for the birth, and the following 2 months. and I'm betting her husband would too. how exactly did you never cross paths?

Anybody else have to read this about 5 times before it made sense?
