Twins in the United States were born only 15 minutes apart and are one year apart

According to the British "Sun" reported on January 3, the birth time of twins in the United States is only 15 minutes apart, but their birthdays are different years and different dates.

Fatima Madrigal and Robert Trujillo welcomed their son Alfredo at 11:45 on New Year's Eve, while his sister Aylin happened to be born at the moment the bell rang at midnight on New Year's Day, the first baby to be born in 2022 at Nativida Medical Center and Monterrey County. Madrigal said: "They are twins but their birthdays are on different days, which is crazy for me. Ana Abril Arias, a family doctor at the medical centre, said: "The birth of the twins is one of the most memorable birth memories of my career. I'm excited to be able to help the twins have a safe birth in late 2021 and early 2022. This way of starting the Year is simply wonderful! ”

According to the Centers for Disease Control, about 120,000 twins are born each year in the United States, accounting for more than 3 percent of all births. However, twins whose birthdays are not on a day are very rare, with an estimated one in two million chances.

Dawn Gilliam and Jason Tello have also given birth to twin babies born in different years. The older sister of two, Joslyn, was born at 11:37 p.m. on December 31, 2019, while her younger brother Jaxson was born at 12:07 a.m. on January 1, 2020. Gilliam said he thought it was incredible.
