[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1476428, member: 18945"] Short answer is no as has already been said.. but just for sheets and giggles....... I think it 'may' be able to be done, perhaps only on a theoretic or deep research level, but not just anywhere and probably not cheaply or easily. Cells do pass the placenta from fetus to mother and these cells can change the mother's genetic makeup..over time. Might even have to be done using certain brain cells from the mother, as research has shown that these cells are capable of crossing the blood/brain barrier. The cells that cross from fetus to mother thru the placenta are talked about here: [url=https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/babys-cells-can-manipulate-moms-body-decades-180956493/]https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science- ... 180956493/[/url] [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microchimerism]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microchimerism[/url] [/QUOTE]
