Twin Babies, Different Moms
Tuesday, June 12, 2007
That's right. A set of identical twins, conceived through IVF were delivered in California via different Moms. The Daily Mail overhypes the story, I'd guess, to say that they're the first ever born on the same day, but the story is still interesting.
Born minutes apart and with almost identical looks, there seems little to set Lauren and Hannah Bernaba apart from any other pair of newborn twins.
But the girls are the world's first twins to be born on the same day to two different women.
First, biological mother Amy Bernaba gave birth to Lauren, weighing 7lb 10oz, then, half an hour later, surrogate mum Torry Keay delivered 7lb 3oz Hannah.
The double pregnancy happened after Mrs Bernaba and husband George had undergone IVF treatment for 12 years in an effort to conceive a baby brother or sister for their son Jeremy, now 15.
