‘A 20-year-old Bangladeshi woman gives birth to twins nearly a month after delivering her first baby and all three newborns are healthy.’

Her twins were found to be healthy and were discharged with no complications. 




Sultana's case is one of "uterus didelphys", which means she has two separate uteruses.
"When the patient came in, we performed an ultrasound and found there were twin babies... We were both shocked and surprised. I have never observed something like this before," Poddar said.
According to Poddar, Sultana and her husband are "very poor" and she had "never had an ultrasound before" in the run up to her first delivery and hence "had no idea that she was carrying two more babies".
"We carried out a cesarean and she delivered twins, a male and a female. The babies and mother are all healthy," the doctor said, adding they were discharged on March 25.

"If you go for a scan beforehand it would be very obvious to see two sets of uteruses," Ng told the BBC.
