White Woman Files Lawsuit After Giving Birth to African American Baby With No Relationship to Her or Her Husband

The woman committed to raising the boy until the parents sued for custody. The clinic doesn't know where her embryos are.

Georgia woman Krystena Murray is suing a fertility clinic after carrying another couples baby through birth. Murray didn't find out about the mixup until she gave birth to a baby that was a completely different skin complexion than her. She and her husband were forced to give up the child she carried to the biological parents, after they sued.

"The birth of my child was supposed to be the happiest moment of my life, and honestly, it was. But it was also the scariest moment of my life," Murray said.

"All of the love and joy I felt seeing him for the first time was immediately replaced by fear. How could this have happened?"

Murray gave up custody of the child after five months to the biological parents. The woman hoped it was just a sperm mixup but DNA testing proved the baby had no relation to her. And interview may be seen here:

A Georgia woman, Krystena Murray, gave birth to a Black baby after a fertility clinic mistakenly implanted her with another couple's embryo during in vitro fertilization. She later had to give up the child to his biological parents after discovering the mix-up.

"I walked in a mom with a child and a baby who loved me and was mine and was attached to me, and I walked out of the building with an empty stroller, and they left with my son," she said after giving the baby up.

"Wow!! What if the skin color had matched her? She might never have discovered it? Did someone else have her baby???" Tweeted Juanita Broderick, reflecting the sentiment of many people on X.com.

"The woman committed to raising the boy until the parents sued for custody. The clinic doesn't know where her embryos are. A common, heartbreaking consequence of IVF." tweeted Lila Rose.
