According to the report, Oxana, a German woman, gave birth to her twin sister Liana in the 26th week of pregnancy. On November 17, 2018, expectant mother Okusana suddenly suffered from premature birth and gave birth to her daughter Lyanna, who weighs only 2 pounds (about 900 grams) at the Holweide Hospital in Cologne, Germany. After the safe birth of her sister, Okosana's uterus closed again, and as the contractions stopped, the doctors decided to let her sister stay in the womb and continue to develop until full term.
Uwe Schellenberger, chief obstetrician at Holwied Hospital, said, "Since the twins have two placentas, the second child grows in a very good environment in the womb. ”
On February 22 of this year (2019), leonie, the second girl in the twins, was born, weighing 8.1 pounds (about 3.7 kilograms).
Lyanna returned home safely after spending the first few weeks of her life at the Newborn Care Center at Holwid Hospital, and the two girls now weigh about 12.5 pounds (about 5.7) and are well-developed.
Dr Schellenberger said that according to our study, a pair of twins were born in Ireland in 2012, 87 days apart. But the 97-day time difference is unique in the world. (Compilation / Overseas Network Li Lianhuan)
