Woman Gives Birth to Two Babies in Two Days After Finding Out She Has Rare Condition
Kelsey Hatcher, a 32-year-old from Alabama, recently gave birth, but it wasn´t a typical birth experience. Kelsey found out that she has a rare condition called uterus didelphys, and it only happens to about 0.3% of women. Kelsey gave birth to two adorable girls on separate days, and it's not because she gave birth overnight to twins; it's all because she has two uteruses!
Kelsey's Surprise Double Birth
After marrying Caleb and having three kids together, Kelsey got pregnant again. But things took a turn when she started bleeding a few weeks into the pregnancy. Worried, she went to the hospital for a checkup. During the ultrasound, the first baby looked fine, but when the radiographer checked the other uterus, there was a surprising discovery. There was another baby! Can you imagine her surprise?
After finding out about her extraordinary pregnancies, Kelsey checked into the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital (UAB) on December 19 for a planned delivery of her daughters. Following a 20-hour labor, Kelsey welcomed her two girls, Roxi and Rebel, who arrived ten hours apart. Roxi made her entrance on December 19 at 7:45 pm, weighing seven pounds, seven ounces. Baby Rebel joined the family on December 20 at 6:10 am, weighing seven pounds, three and a half ounces. It was quite a journey!
