The two Czech couples whose babies were mixed up after hospital births 10 months ago have finally met, agreeing to correct the mix-up by swapping their babies.

The hospital error came to light after the parents of one baby decided to undergo a DNA after being subjected to bar room gossips regarding their daughter who do not resemble any of them.

However, the DNA tests proved that neither the father nor the mother wife could be the parents. The other couple is now undergoing test.

Records show that both Nikola and Veronika were born on December 9 last year in a clinic in Trebic, 100 miles south of the Czech capital, Prague.

But several months after Nikola’s birth, Libor Broza and his wife Jaroslava Trojanova decided to undergo a DNA test, because they thought their daughter did not resemble any of them.

The test proved them correct: Nikola was not theirs.

Last week, the couple met Jan and Jaroslava Cermak and their daughter Veronika, who also agreed to undergo testing.

However, even with the absence of the test result, both couples have already agreed to swap their daughters before the end of the year.

“Of course, we are happy, but on the other hand, we also feel terrible,” Jaroslava Trojanova.

Both the police and the hospital are investigating the case, calling it a “regrettable case”.

The two couples are planning to sue the hospital, with Broza and Trojanova planning to seek some USD510,000 in damages.
