Okay, I thought this kind of thing was never supposed to happen these days with all the monitoring that goes on. Someone will be in deep trouble over this.

WILLISTON, N.D. - A hospital is investigating how the mother of a newborn went home with the wrong baby.Officials with the Mercy Medical Center in Williston, N.D., say the mistake was discovered within an hour and the mother was quickly reunited with her own child.

I know, it's incredible isn't it! No doubt it will all come out in a full investigation and heads will roll.

This actually happened to my aunt...she left with the wrong baby and the hospital called her two days later telling her so. She was beside herself to say the least! This was in the 80s so since then the hospital implemented a lot of measures to make sure it never happened again.

Wow, that must have been crazy!  I don't know what I would do.  So she returned the baby and got hers? That must have felt weird for a long time...
