      Just wondering.. if u had done IVF in TMC around the same period as the couple, would u rush to do DNA now with your child? Or would u prefer to be a '傻人' and rather not know about it?

      I don't think it happened to all couples...it's very sad though. This couple's child had a different colour complexion, very obvious parentage is not a Singaporean Chinese and Caucasian combination, on top of that a diff blood group.

        I think if there's no distinct colour difference... I still can live with it.
        And kid should look similar as either parents... if not... 2 late to sue by then?
        KKH didn't give blood group for my kid... and I still dunno... think KKH should review this practice then.

        Wonder who's for the idea of donor sperm/surrogate mother? I think it's less common in Asia countries... I wouldn't.

          Hah? KKH has such a practice? No give blood group for babies? I thot it should be a SOP for all hospitals now..

            Yah of coz not all, but to know or not to know is better? Esp if look okie and blood group can match.. Or ignorance is bliss??

              so maybe going forward, TMC will include in a free dna analysis as part of the ivf package??


              to confirm wat u see is wat went in??

              i agree tat even not for ivf, the chances of carry wrong bb home is there… my own DD’s tags came off her ankle a few times too… and yes, i delivered in TMC…

              i kena a ‘not so good’ midwife and neither do i find the nurses helpful… maybe becuz i dun stay single bedded??

              i was told a certain Mrs Wxxx visit all the new mums who went for her classes but she didn’t visit me leh… though she visit my friends whom stay single bedded…

                Know what my husb did? When my dds was borned, he quickly look for birthmarks to identify them in the delivery room. For dd1, she has a small one on her wrist, and dd2 has a small one near her knee.

                  I wonder whether they inform the real father. They must have used his sperm without permission. Will he have parental rights? :?

                        They will have some idea for sure. It'll be a very short list.....
