While I prefer riddles with ONLY one possible solution, I find that is rarely the case. While the official answer may be the most reasonable, other answers would include rape, artificial insemination, or alternate lifestyles that don't put a premium on monogamy.

Nope.

Check the OP; it says the child was born to them [born to the the doctor and the nurse.]

Your criticism is outside the box, but sadly it's also outside the puzzle.
