IVF baby mix-up - TMC
-
verykiasu2010:
Exactly. I can imagine if it happen to me, altho' it wouldn't lah. Already, I don't have \"instant love\" for my kids ... imagine if it was IVF and this happen?!to consciously adopt someone with marked different skin tone is no problem in accepting it - it is a conscious decision made
but to discover it during labour .... that is really shocking, and imagine the emo trauma ....... -
verykiasu2010:
Not as easy as you put it.duriz:
I can only think of one innocent victim: the poor little baby
he/she is least to be worried about
if given up for adoption, the queue would be formed overnite
latest report has it that the parents have decided to keep, with lots of tender loving care la.........TMC would have to make compensation and probably settle out of court, with non-disclosure agreement
end of story.
It's a great emotional hurdle for the parents. For the father, not his child. For the mother, having carried and nurtured (someone else's + her) child for nine months. Being pregnant is a very emotional journey.
Anything éø”ęÆčē®å°äŗ between the couple would be an opportunity to hinge on this.
The child may \"suffer\" unnecessarily. -

Wonderful news :rahrah:

duriz:
Duriz, your description of A (mother) & O(father) cannot possibly produce a B baby.caroline3sg:
I think also not her egg because they are O & A blood group while the baby is B.
You would/could be wrong.
My friends are blood type A (mother) and type O (father).
Their child is type B (alike the paternal grandmother)..
The genetic makeup of A is AA or AO. And the genetic makeup of O is simply OO. So no matter how you mix it together, there can be no combination that makes a Type B blood type. Something really would be \"fishy\" if that happens.
This is covered in O-level Biology. Even my sec 4 daughter knows this. -

I am with you ksi and appreciate the way you look at this, sometime there are some thing in life better not to know
Please do not assume that it is easy for me to say.carebear:
Easy for you to say.
But difficult for the father to accept that the child is not his and he has to bring up somebody's child which he may not be willing.
Mother definitely will feel for the child cos she carried the child for 9 months.
If it were not the mother's DNA then it may not be so bad.......
If they want a child so badly, they would have explored all possibilities, so the couple should have been prepared for almost all scenarios. Couples also receive counselling before they go through the process. Granted this has come as initial shock amidst their joy but believe me, it is still a blessing compared to many many many more I know who are not even blessed with anything, not even adoption. We are not talking about the mindset of people who are conceiving naturally, those I believe will be in for serious shocks like what duriz has put it, heads will roll.....
than to know - it's more a Child life here we are talking about , and she have a long way to go .
I dont know how to put it - that very much depend
on the couple involved especially the wife now?
Another scenario - what if with the hubby, the IVF cannot be successful
than what? - maybe that is another way of looking at the whole issue -
many may not want to look at it this way - because it should not happen to me?
Bless the Child for human fallacy.

kiddo:
*sigh* not successful then don't have baby also not end of the world wat. Might be a blessing instead. But these parents who desire kids so very very much must really be super-generous. This is one situation that I really cannot identify with since it is actually so troublesome to take care of newborns and as they grow up.

See? As expected this would be the resolution. They will definitely be compensated for the boo-boo but they will keep the baby and actually it is a win-win.latest report has it that the parents have decided to keep, with lots of tender loving care la.........TMC would have to make compensation and probably settle out of court, with non-disclosure agreement
end of story. -

only reported that the parents have decided to keep the child
i would expect a non-disclosure financial settlement, after all what has been done could not be undone....except for health / hospital benefits for the child -
