"There were concerns for the smaller baby but at the next scan she was still alive.

"It was very emotional when the doctors said that the smaller baby was still growing. She was such a little fighter."

The babies were delivered when doctors carried out an emergency caesarean because they were both lying awkwardly in the womb. While Ame, the younger baby, arrived first at 29 weeks weighing 4ld and 13oz, sis Lia was born at 32 weeks and weighed 6lb 11oz.

39 years ago I gave birth to a boy and then to a "surprise" girl. My doctor was basically shocked as he had never heard 2 heart beats and my total wgt gain was only 23 lbs. He estimated that they were up to 4 wks apart in conception! I would love to be in touch with someone else who experienced this "wonder" Mystery!!!!!!

I had this type of twins in 1962. Two girls, conceived 3 wks apart and weighing 6lbs 2 0z and 7lbs 10 Ozs at birth. The larger one peeled from head to toe and the smaller was at full gestation. They developed normally and have families of their own now. Enjoy your babies, it goes by fast!
