Woman discovers she isn't her daughter's real mum

A Brazilian woman who took a DNA test to prove the identity of her daughter's father was shocked to find out she wasn't her real mother.

Tereza Menas and her former boyfriend took DNA tests because her nine-year-old daughter wanted her father's name on her birth certificate.

But when the tests came back the results said neither were the girl's biological parents. Two further tests gave the same result.

It's now believed staff at the Santa Casa Hospital, where she had her baby in 1994, may have swapped Mrs Menas' baby for another one born on the same day.

All parents who had baby girls born on the same day at the hospital have now been contacted so the mystery can be solved.

Mrs Menas, of Mato Grosso do Sul, told Jornal Nacional: "I want to meet my biological daughter but I am afraid that my daughter's biological mother would want to take her from me. I would never do that, I would never swap the girls back."
