28-year-old woman discovers she has 2 wombs with baby in each ¶
According to a recent report, a 28-year-old woman named Kelly Fairhurst has been confirmed to have two wombs with babies in them. This rare condition occurs in one in five million cases.
Kelly, who is already a mother of two, received the news after undergoing a routine scan. The scan revealed that she had two wombs, each containing a baby, and two cervixes.
Doctors have warned Kelly that she may have two labours, as each baby is in a separate womb. This has raised concerns about the possibility of premature birth, as Kelly's first and second babies were delivered prematurely.
Professor of Obstetrics Asma Khalil of St George's Hospital in Tooting said that one in 3,000 women is born with two wombs, but having twins with one in each womb is incredibly rare.
Kelly's case has sparked interest, with many people wondering about the possibility of identical twins in two separate wombs. Kelly's daughters, Agyness and Margo, were both born prematurely, and Kelly's family has a history of twins and triplets.
Kelly has expressed her gratitude for the blessing of having two amazing babies, but is also concerned about the risks associated with premature birth. She plans to have the babies through an operation, which she finds scary.
As news of Kelly's condition spreads, many people are left wondering about the possibility of such a rare condition occurring in others. The case has sparked interest in the medical community, with many experts weighing in on the rarity of this condition.
