fertility clinics

A couple raising a young daughter say the girl was conceived through an alleged IVF mix-up involving embryos or embryos' gametes from another couple, and the two families have now reached a custody agreement. Under the arrangement, both couples will reportedly share parenting roles for the child, whose biological parents are the couple with whom the mix-up allegedly occurred. Details of the agreement have not been fully disclosed, and the case has drawn attention to oversight and safeguards at fertility clinics.
