Woman has to give up wrong IVF baby

A woman who has been mistakenly impregnated with the wrong IVF embryo will hand over the baby when she gives birth.

Carolyn and Sean Savage of Ohio in the US are due to have the baby boy in two weeks.

In February, Carolyn, 40, was impregnated with what she believed to be the remaining embryos but two months into the pregnancy doctors told her they were the wrong ones.

The couple decided not to terminate the pregnancy because of religious reasons but to give the baby to the biological parents.

"It has been hard, we have been rooting for the baby the whole time," Carolyn told NBC's Today Show.

She said she dreads the moment she has to hand the baby over but feels it is the right decision.

"They delivered the worst news of our life," Sean said.

"It’ll be exceptionally difficult."

The Savages have three other children.

Wow, it makes you wonder how something like this can happen! And how many times has it happened before! That would be such a tough thing these guys are doing and an extremely strong thing also to be able to give the baby up. So sad

Wow that would be so hard for them to do!!!!! I give them credit for giving the baby to the proper parents
I hope the sue the doctors that stuffed up in the first place!! I sure would

wow thats shocking those poor parents having to give up the child, good on them though for making such a decision not sure if id be able to do that if i was put in there shoes, having to go through the nine months and the labour only to go home empty handed. so so sad
