‘Just Like Rape’: Lesbian Couple Sues Fertility Clinic For Alleged Embryo Mix-Up, Say They Wanted A Girl But Got A Boy

A Buffalo-based lesbian couple is suing CNY fertility clinic in Latham, NY for allegedly giving them the wrong embryo, New York Post reported. Heather Wilhelm-Routenberg and Robin (Robbie) Routenberg-Wilhelm explicitly requested that they have a baby daughter after undergoing fertility treatments.

However, the couple was devastated to find out they were expecting a son. Now they are responding with legal action against the fertility clinic, claiming Heather “became suicidal” after her son’s birth and entered a “dark depression” upon finding out she was carrying a baby boy.

Upon first finding out the child was male at her 15 week appointment, Heather said she became convinced the IVF clinic mixed up the embryos and she was actually carrying someone else’s baby.

“I looked at Robbie and said, ‘What’s if it’s not yours — who is in my body?!’ That’s when I flipped out, that’s when I felt my body was taken hostage,” Heather told Amy Klein at the post. “I assumed it was someone else’s embryo, not the wrong embryo of ours.”

This really shows that this should not be a legal business.

Selling human beings.

Should be nothing more than a breach of contract action (with no damages)....I was always taught that there is no such thing as a cause of action for “Wrongful Life”

How dare they assume it’s a boy just because it has male genitalia!

[Leep]

I thought they turned little boys into girls?

[Leep]

Whatever a girl is.
Who can say?

Any pictures of the “lovely” couple?

On second thought, nevermind.

[stevio]

Good choice.

IIRC, IVF produces BOYS at a significantly higher rate than natural conception...something like 56% to 44%

This should do wonders for the boys self esteem as he grows up. Horrible people

Just for you Kehoe! A "woke" and "modern" couple full of 'love'

[SkyDancer]

They'll just turn him into a girl like this one parent did:

Seven Year Old Boy

[GreyHoundSailor]

The boy should sue his parental units.

[bantam]

I’m gonna guess who the guy in that relationship 🤣🤣🤦‍♂️😩😩😩😩😩

[mombonn]

I want to reply, but have no words.

[M Kehoe]

Ack!

I might hit the one on the right.

Laz would probably hit both of them. The one on the left with a hammer.

How dare they assume it’s a boy just because it has male genitalia!

Exactly. How dare these two lesbians assume the boy's gender? Only a cis-man-nonbirthing person would misgender someone.

???? And just what are they defining as a “boy”? Are they transphobes? < / sarc >
