He suspected our daughter wasn’t his.
Days later, a doctor called with the results. The test showed no genetic link between Caleb and the baby. I was devastated—until a terrifying realization hit me. I’d never cheated. So I returned to the hospital.
Records revealed a nightmare mistake: two baby girls born minutes apart had been briefly placed together, and their ID bands were mixed up. The baby I brought home wasn’t biologically mine.
An investigation confirmed it. Our biological daughter was living nearby with another family. The reunion was surreal—she had Caleb’s eyes—but saying goodbye to the baby I’d raised broke my heart.
In the end, both families chose to stay connected. Caleb and I survived the storm, scarred but stronger.
Because love isn’t proven by DNA—it’s built in sleepless nights, whispered lullabies, and the courage to face the truth together.
