- <p> BORN. To Anna Johnson, 29, surrogate mother implanted with
- a fertilized embryo from Cris and Mark Calvert; a 6-lb. 10-oz.
- boy; in Orange, Calif. The couple paid Johnson $10,000 to bear
- their test-tube baby because Cris has had a hysterectomy and
- is unable to carry a baby. Last month Johnson reneged on her
- end of the deal and sued the Calverts for custody. The court's
- decision may serve as a guidepost in what constitutes
- parenthood--the child's genetic heritage or the act of
- bearing the child.
