A British woman is being hailed as a true medical miracle after giving birth to triplets from two separate wombs in her body.
Hannah Kersey was diagnosed with a rare condition, called uterus didelphys, which is thought to affect just 0.1 to 0.5 percent of the population. Before becoming pregnant, she was told that it was highly unlikely she would carry children in each womb – a possibility with odds estimated at 5 million to one.
Now, the chances of a woman giving birth to three children from her two wombs are even more scarce – estimated at one in 25 million. But that’s exactly what Kersey did when she gave birth to three baby girls, conceived from two different eggs, one in each womb, that were simultaneously fertilized by two different sperm.

Oh?
She didn’t have 2 wombs, but that’s how my niece and her husband ended up with triplets - two eggs fertilized by two different sperm and then one egg split = triplets – a pair of identical twins and a fraternal “twin”. The identical twins shared the same uterine sack.
One sperm fertilized one egg for the twins, another sperm fertilized the other egg for a singleton.
