ATWT: Thoughts on Meg's Baby Switch

Please note this isn't a spoiler. Just a heapin' portion of speculation on my part.

It is so obvious that Meg's baby has been switched. Why? Well, they rush the baby off from the delivery room without Meg ever seeing the baby. This is key in the soap opera baby switch plot.

Now, whodunit?

Possibilities:

Suspect #1 Paul Ryan
He may have thought the only way to have a relationship with baby Eliza was to have her switched.

Suspect #2 James Stenbeck
We don't really believe he is dead, do we? Remember, he "died" while trying to hold Meg hostage in order to get his hands on the baby in the first place.

Suspect #3 Craig Montgomery
Craig would do this as revenge for Paul's role in the miscarriage of Meg and Craig's baby.

Suspect #4 Dusty Donovan
I know that's out there. But, remember, Dusty is a bit of a thug. He may think that keeping Paul's baby away from him is just revenge for Paul keeping little Johnnie away from Jen.

Suspect #5 Babara Ryan
I know, Babs is another "out there" suspect. But, like Paul, she may assume the only way she can have a relationship with her grandchild is via this baby switch.

Am I missing anyone?
