Nichole's paternity Question
So Serena eventually gets pregnant by Fred, which means that somehow he was fertile as well in the end.
Just wondering, I presume that while June was regularly sleeping with Nick by choice, the monthly ceremony was also regularly performed.
Does this mean that there could be a slight chance that Nichole is Fred's and not Nick's after all?
