If you were to find out that the child that you brought home from the hospital, was switched another woman's baby at birth in the hospital. Would you want your biological child back. Like lets say that it has been a couple of years and you've already bonded with the child and everything, would you still want your own biological child back.
I think if its been years since I have been with this child that I thought of as my own and raised it as my own, I would not want my child back. Instead I would want to know about the parents that are raising that child and making sure that it is in a good home and if the child is happy, then I would just leave it. If it has been like a few days that I found out that this child isn't mine, then I would definitely want my child back.
What about you what decision would you make and why.

I feel the exact same way as you. If it had been a few years, and my biological child was in a loving, healthy home, I would not want to unfairly disrupt his or her life. Plus, I would love the child I had been raising and not want to part with him. But of course I would always wonder what might have been.

If it had been years than no. This child already has a life and parent. I would want to stay in contact with them and know what is happening and do the same for them. I would do that because that is what would be best for the child. A few days then yeah give me my child back. My husband always ask me if we got the right baby. But lets see she was a preemie him, my mother in law and five doctors followed her to the NICU, I go to see her before they left. She is built just like me and has my temper. I know she is ours. I would have know if they switched her. He always worries because she was a healthy preemie and got moved several times in the NICU. He is just funny that way I know she is mine.
