My mother's third child got switched in the hospital, September 1961. But she knew instantly that the child was not hers, because the child the nurse brought her looked nothing like her two older children. Happily, we got our real sister back before Mom left the hospital. :D

When my baby was 18 hours old the nurses came in & gave me a tiny little baby boy. I refused to touch him and asked for MY Baby. They said 'this is your baby'. I'm like, 'Yes this baby does look alot like my baby, but this baby is tiny. My son is 8lbs. 14oz , and I Want My Baby'. Well I marched down to maternity a went to pick up My Son. I said, 'See, they look alike but My Baby is much bigger'. They finally checked & weighed the boys and gave me My Son. Later my mother said that, that had happened when she had my brother Tim, at the Vancouver General Hospital. Only they gave her a girl and told her she didn't have a girl, she had a boy. Strange how people who are trained would make such mistakes.

When I was a 1st time mom in 1989 I wondered how I could tell that this child was mine, before they took her away to go to the nursery. My outer toes are clubbed., one on one side and two on the other, I looked at the babies feet and identical to mine. Same with my son in 1991.

My Mother had the same thing happen to her. When I was born they used forceps and it left a small mark. They gave her a baby girl and she looked and said this is not my baby because my baby has a mark on the left side of her face from the forceps. The nurses went back to the nursery and came back with me and Mom recognized the me and the nurses could see the mark. She pleaded with my Mom not to say anything as it would cause a lot of trouble. My Mom mentioned it several times as I was growing up. Mom said if it was not for that mark she might have gone home with the wrong baby.

Similar case happened a few years ago in my country. A dad was laughed at because his daughter didn't look like him. They started a research and foud out that two baby girls were switched in the hospital. It was very traumatizing for both families because they were already emotionally attached to the girl they were raising. I think that after all these years emotional scars are healed and both families are still in touch.

Often the problem with learning your children were switched is that you want the one you lost plus you want the one you've bonded to...yet you can't have both & must give one up. In this case if the family had known, they could have adopted the other & had both. Soooo sad that this mistake was never uncovered earlier.

I did. Family lore is crap. My grandma always claimed that she was half Native American, but she has blue eyes so I called bull crap and took the DNA test and I'm only 0.1% Native American and the test said my closest likely 100% Native American ancestor was a 4th-7th great grandparent. I started doing a family tree before I did the DNA test and the first family member I couldn't track was a 4th great grandmother. Proof I was right and I can say HAA! I like being right! xD

I used to think my father was crazy (er) when he’d tell the story of drawing a little pen line on my ankle and then following nurses around the hospital after I was born. (I was a month early, placenta detached or something, not the point, so they were running around with me getting my oxygen levels up.) But now I can appreciate it, because I went back to that hospital and they absolutely could’ve lost babies, they barely could find a stethoscope.

Omg, this is so sad that her dad was raised in an orphanage. I'm glad her dad had them and they loved him very much. I was so paranoid when I had my first born. She was taking away from me to get all these kinds of test because she was under weight. Luckily, she had a unique birth mark.

Both of my parents said we were German. My results came back 80% British. We were all shocked! My aunt did it and got similar results. Not sure how the “we’re German” thing came about but somehow our whole family was wrong.

My grandparents on my moms side also took an ancestry dna test and it linked me to them so I know that I wasn’t switched at birth but I still have a lot of questions about how my DNA is so different from what I thought.

I've had my DNA done and my ethnicity wasn't what I was expecting. My brother also had his done and his shows a bit of Jewish and I don't. So it's coming from my male side. Which we don't know anything about since my 3rd great grandfather is an unknown. Another relative had his done. I contacted him for more info and he said he was adopted. But due to the shared matches we had I knew what line he was from. In the meantime I contacted some other relatives and had him in contact with his birth family within 2 days. And it was a very happy ending.

I was nearly switched at birth! There was another baby girl born the same day, and back then, they didn't have private rooms. The nurse brought me and the other baby in, and handed me to mom's roommate and the other girl (whos name is Kelly) to my mom. Mom said "This is not my baby. My baby is bald. This one has a head full of hair." She looked at the other lady's baby and saw that they had been switched. No one reported it or anything since it was made right. My mom worked for years as a cake decorator at Kroger. She and I look just alike, so i wonder if the switch hadn't been found, if i would see her at the grocery store and feel a connection.

My Mum had a 9 lb girl in a catholic maternity home in New Zealand in 1967. She got handed a tiny wee baby and she said to the nun that it was not her baby. We all have blue eyes, this baby had brown eyes and a swarthy skin. My sister was blond as my parents came from Sweden. Took three days before my sister was handed back. The other baby’s parents took my sister home and had her christened, wrong name off course. Finally my father went to our lawyer and things got straightened out. Nowadays they would be taken to court.

Babies being switched at birth has been going on for years. Look it up. Psychopaths could get a big "control and power" high from disrupting other's lives when no one can trace it back to them. That's how they operate. Yes, I have a degree in Psychology, but it doesn't take a psychologist to see that many healthcare workers could be capable of doing this...as well as actually deliberately taking lives in a hospital setting, as happens quite often. All that is at stake if getting caught is what makes it so exciting to these types of people.

I’m confused... how on earth did they come up as relatives if their fathers were switched at the hospital? If you’re switched at the hospital you don’t have family genetics that would come up in a test like that. Is anyone else with me or did I miss something?

I'm sure this happened not infrequently in the past. The reason it *doesn't* happen commonly today is because of how very easy it is to have happen. Many newborns look fairly generic and there's a lot of chaos going-on in a Labour & Delivery ward: emergencies, shift changes, general business and, of course, the human carelessness that results in (sometimes fatal) medical errors. I've been at many births, and it's notable for the lengths everyone goes to "confirm" which baby belongs to which mother. There was a proposal, at one point, for DNA testing for all newborns, but this was quickly quashed - likely because of how many babies are born to fathers who are not, in fact, the biological dads (estimates are 4%, or 1-in-25 babies).

Back in medical school, on our genetics clerkship, almost 10% of patients turned out not to be the biological children of their registered fathers. Some of them know, some of them don´t, but if you are getting tested for any reason, proceed with care.
@Lionforaday
@Lionforaday 6 жыл бұрын
Agreed. Lots of implications for genetic testing; I now have patients worried after requesting their DNA be "tested" through services like 23andme, only to discover they're at increased risk for this-or-that unsavoury disease! As you say, "proceed with care"!

I was so nervous about this so I never kept an eye out of my child. They weighted her and showed me the baby. They put her in a little bed at the end of the room. And moved my bed next to hers.. Then a nurse placed her in my bed and moved me to the hall.. I got the bed of the window and I was sure nobody would take her by mistake. But others used to put cribs together which wasn't allowed and the nurses would go crazy always checking the brazalete of the hand and leg...

I've learned from many KZbin vids that if I ever have a baby, I'm demanding to have them dressed in something I brought, toe nail painted, special ankle band, let me draw a star or heart or something on their hospital band, etc. just SOMETHING to make it really hard to take home the wrong child.

Through DNA testing and genealogy work, we have confirmed which male cousin is my paternal grandmother's father. His mother's line DNA connections now make sense to us in how we are related.

Not sure what is required now, but 20 years ago, the hospital would put an I.d bracelet on the baby after birth, before taking the baby out of the delivery room. The numbers matching the ones on mom I.d bracelet had to be read back to the nurse to make sure both numbers on each bracelet (mom and baby) matched. Each time the baby was brought to the mom, she had to read the numbers on the bracelets before the baby was handed to her. Not sure if all hospitals policies are the same but I had to do that with each of my children in NYC.

(Alice's bio dad could have been related to the other lady's mom but very distant-Ashkenazi Jews can trace their ancestors back to 200-300 originating people)
