Cooked Crack Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Quote She is a medical anomaly. A central Alabama woman was born with two uteri and two cervixes. That's just the beginning of this amazing story. Now, she’s expecting, pregnant in both uteri. So two babies and technically two separate pregnancies! Kelsey Hatcher has the medical anomaly, two uteri and two cervices, which is pretty rare, but now she's pregnant in both uteri — that's almost unheard of. Quote “Very, very rare. Yes. OB/GYNs go their whole careers without seeing anything like this," OB/GYN Dr. Shweta Patel said. Kelsey has two uteri, each with its own cervix. She's known about her physical oddity for a while, and she knows it’s pretty rare. That's why her pregnancy is considered high-risk. UAB Dr. Richard Davis specializes in high-risk pregnancies. “A double cervix or double uteruses way under 1%, maybe three per 1,000 women might have that. And then the probability of you having a twin in each horn is really crazy," Davis said. Quote There's a good chance each uterus could start contractions at different times. The sisters could be born hours, days, or weeks apart. So, with each baby having their own separate uterus and placenta. Are they twins or simply siblings? “I think medically, this is such a rare thing that we don't have a better way of describing it besides still calling them twins," Patel said. No matter what you call them, in a few weeks, the Hatchers will have five children under 8. https://www.wvtm13.com/article/dora-mom-with-double-uterus-pregnant-in-both/45784591 Wild. So technically she could get pregnant with two different fathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadySkinsFan Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 High risk pregnancy for sure! I can't imagine having two uteri and having dual menstrations. That's a nightmare to me. I barely survived to menopause, and was so grateful not to bleed every month anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsmarydu Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 It was actually two helluva party. Damn, that's one of the weirdest medical things I've ever heard of (and I've seen every single episode of ER at least once). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooked Crack Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 Quote An Alabama woman born with two uteri and cervixes gave birth to twin baby girls earlier this week—one day apart. Kelsey Hatcher welcomed the newborns Roxi Layla and Rebel Laken late on Dec. 19 and early on Dec. 20, respectively, fulfilling her doctor’s prediction that the twins could arrive on different days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
