LONGWOOD, Fla. -- A Florida couple has filed an emergency lawsuit against a fertility clinic, alleging their newborn child is not genetically related to either of them after an in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedure.

The couple, identified in court documents as John and Jane Doe to protect their privacy, is suing IVF Life, Inc. D/B/A Fertility Center of Orlando and Dr. Milton McNichol, M.D., WESH reported.

According to the complaint filed in Palm Beach County Circuit Court, the couple used their own egg and sperm to create three viable embryos at the clinic.

The couple also fears that another person may be pregnant with or raising one or more of their own embryos or children.

Yeah… that’s their one VERY IMPORTANT job (implanting the right embryo in the right mother) and they fudged it up

That’s the kind of situation where I can’t imagine how the family must feel.

So even though not genetically hers, I’d imagine mom still has motherly feelings for the kid she carried.

Same for a mom out there that carried their embryo if it’s ever figured out.

But they also probably really want their genetic kids.

That’s about as messy a situation there can be.

...and the other two were disposed of, just like an abortion.

Looks Filipino, Latin, maybe even Middle Eastern.
With that picture, ICE will be knocking on their door soon.

Or they were frozen in case the first embryo transfer failed or they wanted more children later.

That baby looks to be more curry flavored than chocolate.

Donald Cline, fertility Doc in Indiana, "fathered" at least 90 children from 1974-1987. I vaguely recall an episode from one of the Law and Order shows inspired by it. John Stamos played he doctor. (Sorry, movie board).
