The mother, who is Asian, gave birth to two non-Asian babies, and each child was a genetic match to a different couple that was also a client at the fertility clinic, the lawsuit states.

One even said that when his wife was pregnant, they were told they were going to have a boy but ultimately had a girl, the lawsuit states.
