I watched a drama on vacation that included a story line about two couples whose babies were switched in the hospital. (The dad whose baby was chronically ill had switched his daughter for another baby without anyone's knowledge and the switch was discovered months later.) I wondered then what the best thing to do would be in that situation. Would it be better to swap back and have the baby that is yours biologically or should the parents stick with the baby they have bonded with, or more importantly, the baby who has bonded to them? I can't imagine how difficult that situation would be.
In Australia, two sets of parents have decided they cannot part with the babies they brought home from the hospital even though they were switched before they came home. Click on the title for the story.
Wow. Unimaginable.
