Gimme a break. What sort of mental distress did she suffer? So she breast fed a kid that wasn't hers. Salma Hayek does it all the time, (where are the pictures? )

If anything, the hospital should sue her for being too stupid to recognize her own kid.

This is sad. I wish these people could forgive and overlook the offense suffered.

"But that milk was for MY baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

OK, she should put a dollar value on it.

I was going to post that maybe she wants the cocaine back but I read the article and saw that her husband is a lawyer. Typical. "Apparently, the patient-care technician offered a tearful apology, said Jennifer's husband, Scott, an attorney who is handling the lawsuit. "But it's not enough," he added." Of course it's not enough.

The only reason I could see that she could be really harmed is if the one she fed is HIV positive or has some other communicable disease. That would be a valid reason, IMO.

I hope the patient-care technician counter-sues for mental pain and anguish.

Did anyone watch The Office?



Sorta spoiler?









The most recent episode touches on this topic of breastfeeding the wrong baby lol

 

[droht]

Wouldn't the parents of the kid who was breast-fed by mistake have more of a case?

Wasn't this an episode of The Office? (dkane beat me by a minute!)

You really need a "pardon the pun" on this one, don't ya?

This litigious society of ours disgusts me.

Babies suck?

Babies suck?

As a person, everyone does, eventually.

The bumper sticker "The more I know about people, the more I like my dog" comes to mind.

Well, this is a case of "a tit for a tat".

as a devil's advocate ...

the first feeding is a big deal for the mom-baby bond. i don't know whether it's psychological for both or health related for the baby.

"The mother suffered mental anguish"

The baby probably cried when he saw how small they were.

The first feeding is a big deal for the mom-me bond.

Now the smoke clears ... "Alex" was the wrong baby ..and I thought they meant a little, new-born infant

Peace and Good Sound to All,

And, since an infant has almost no immune system, the mother is where this comes from, at first. If the wrong baby nurses from a woman and has an allergic reaction, it would be far worse than an damage "done" to her.

The baby wasn't going to turn down a meal- if she's too stupid to know her baby, maybe someone ought to sue her for inflicting herself on it, on the baby's behalf.

I think some of the blame might lie with the mom. After finding this picture of the tit-illating toddler, I think the mom should of had a clue something was amiss.

 

[sawzalot]

I once had the wrong nipple at "feeding time" , it's kinda ironic as that too involved a lawsuit/legal proceeding, I am indeed happily remarried now and never feed elsewhere.

Maybe the infant can get the woman charged with 3rd degree assault. If it's good enough for the cops, it should suffice for the infant.
