"Mom gives birth to two sets of identical twins at Houston hospital" news item caught my attention. The following link gives the details of the news:
Rare Twin Birth
However, for ready reference, I am copying the news here:
A couple welcomed two sets of identical twins delivered at a Houston hospital on Valentine's Day. According to The Woman's Hospital of Texas where the babies were born, the odds of such a birth naturally is one in 70 million.
Tressa and Manuel Montalvo became parents to the tandem of twins last week after they were delivered within minutes of each other at the hospital. The boys developed in separate placenta and were delivered at 31 weeks.
Ace and Blaine were born at 8:51 a.m. weighing 3 pounds, 10 ounces, and 3 pounds, 15 ounces. Cash and Dylan were just one minute behind, born at 8:52 a.m. weighing 2 pounds, 15 ounces, and 3 pounds, 6 ounces.
"We tried to stick to the A-B-C-D theme when naming them," said Tressa, 36. "We didn't expect it. We were trying for just one and we were blessed with four."
The couple first thought they were having twins, but were referred to a doctor in Houston after a third heart beat was detected.
"We couldn't have been more surprised when Dr. Kirshon told us we were having four babies and that they were two sets of twins," said Manuel, 43.
The Woman's Hospital of Houston has delivered more than 2,800 sets of multiples.
"No fertility drugs were used," Tressa said. "We planned the pregnancy ― I guess we just succeeded a little too much."
The Montalvos now have five young sons. But Manuel said the couple still wants a little girl.
As usual, I used this event to validate my observations on twin births which can be found at the following link:
