When it comes to working in a maternity hospital, not a month goes by without some “special story,” but some stories are not funny at all.
A similar “story” happened to my best friend. The birth went well, the baby is healthy. It all started from the moment her mother was brought to the hospital for the first feeding. And her friend immediately noticed and realized that it was not her blood. The friend realized that she did not have the strength to make a scandal, so she called the midwife and asked her why she was brought someone else’s baby and where her blood was.
“Oh my God, mother, what are you talking about? Are you playing a joke? I don’t have time for them! I still have moms like you to discharge and admit!” My friend was already angry, because not only did the midwife not want to check, but she was also laughing.
She took off the baby’s diaper and said: “I gave birth to a girl a few hours ago, does this baby look like a girl to you? Can you find my blood now, or do I have to make you look for a new job?”
The midwife quickly ran after the head doctor. Later they apologized to the woman, because it turned out that this boy was supposed to go to the Baby Home because his mother had abandoned him and they had somehow accidentally mixed him up.
My friend did not want to quarrel with the staff, because they did their job well, and she did not like scandals. Although she took her baby home, something was bothering her. She would return home not herself, and she would tell her husband about it.
More recently, I attended the first anniversary of little Alina and Max. The whole family and the closest people gathered for such a grand celebration. Max became a member of his friend’s family a month after his discharge. She and her husband spent a lot of nerves to find him and collect all the necessary documents for adoption. However, now they are happy to have such two charming children and they love them equally! That’s how my friend met her son in the hospital by chance and couldn’t forget about him.
