Woman implanted with wrong embryo gives birth

A US woman who had the wrong embryo implanted by a fertility clinic gave birth to a boy.

Sean and Carolyn Savage said in a statement that the “healthy baby boy” was delivered on Thursday in Toledo, Ohio.

The Savages offered their “heartfelt congratulations” to the baby’s biological parents, Paul and Shannon Morell of Michigan.

They said their family is going through a very difficult time and requested privacy in the days ahead.

The Savages said the fertility clinic transferred the wrong frozen embryo to Mrs Savage’s womb in early February.
