Baby swap couples agree not to swap backTwo Argentinian couples whose babies were mixed up in hospital had their compensation cut after they decided not to swap children.
Neither of the families, from Concordia, could bear to be parted from the children they had been raising as their own for six years.
But they both pressed ahead with their claims for compensation from Felipe Heras Hospital, reports Las Ultimas Noticias.
The judge had already agreed that each couple should receive £25,000 - but he reduced the payments to £2,000 after learning of the couples' plans.
A spokesperson for the judge said: “We understand that they are not that distressed with what happened because they said they are happy with their children and do not intend to switch them.
“So I guess they ended up gaining by the hospital's mistake and they don't need such a big compensation after all."
