Paternity issues
Hello,
I'm in a rather difficult situation trying to determine if a child is mine. I know my blood type and the child's blood type. Do I need to know the woman's blood type in order to determine if the child is mine ? I do not know the woman's blood type and am afraid to ask as I'm sure she would be come suspicious.

You should go for DNA test. Only you and your child are enough for this test. Blood group won't tell paternity. It may give some clue only. Confirmation is only by DNA test.
