Mom Welcome The Second Identical Twin, One In 100,000 Delight
A Sydney family has welcomed the birth of twin girls three years after they welcomed twin boys. Anangrove twins Camilla and Madison are a one in 100,000 pair.
The identical baby girls, who were born at Norwest Private Hospital in Bella Vista , were the second set of identical twins born to proud parents Sophia and Paule Brown. Their big brothers, three-year-olds Ethan and Harley, were also born at Norwest Private Hospital.
The twins arrived on Wednesday September 6. Camilla was born at 1.25pm weighing 3.12kg, and Madison a minute later weighing 3.02kg. Even more remarkable, both sets of twins were conceived naturally and not through IVF, in which the chance of multiple births is higher.
The four siblings are the only twins in their families, though identical twins are not genetic. Mrs Brown, 32, had smooth births with both sets of twins — she had a natural delivery with Ethan and Harley and a caesarean with Camilla and Madison.
Mrs Brown said the girls “are really good”, and their big brothers were “very affectionate and caring” towards their baby sisters.
“They hold them like little dolls,” she said.
Obstetrician Dr Norman Blumenthal, who delivered all the Brown children, said the chance of having identical twins was three in 1000 each time, so the chance of having two different sets of identical twins was even more rare. They are identical and beautiful girls, hand some boys and they love together.
Some one say” they are so cute, you are beautiful mom and happiest in the world, i want like you, have a big family with only two giving birth”
