What are Hospitals Doing To Prevent This?
Most hospitals keep a strict ratio of one nurse per patient in the delivery segment of hospitals to ensure that each patient is getting the utmost care and attention. Infants are issued an ID bracelet, sometimes even more than one, with the mother’s name and the hospital code printed on it. Many hospitals are following the trend of eliminating nurseries all together, ensuring that the baby will never leave the parents’ site. All care for the baby is done in the same room as the parents.

A Mother Always Knows
Mother X claims she always knew that her son wasn’t her actual child. She told news reporters, “A mother always knows,” but there were telltale signs along the way. For instance, when she was pregnant, she was told she was pregnant with a little girl. After giving birth, she held her daughter in her arms before a nurse took her away for cleaning and care. The next day she was handed a baby boy and told that it was her son.
