Woman with Two Wombs Gives Birth to Twins
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil - A Brazilian woman gave birth on Wednesday to healthy twins, a boy and a girl, each from an individual womb, and doctors said it was the first such case in Latin America's largest country.

Ivan Lima, director of Meridional Hospital in the town of Cariacica in the coastal southeastern state of Espirito Santo said a caesarean section had been necessary after 36 weeks of pregnancy, but the two-wombed mother and the twins were fine.

'The twins are perfectly normal and we have excellent prognosis for their development,' he told Reuters by telephone. 'No cases of twins being born from two separate uteri have been described in the Brazilian medical literature.'

It is extremely rare that fetuses develop normally and symmetrically in two separate wombs, doctors said. The mother, a farm worker, was recovering normally.

The Father, Jaime "Two-Cocks" Llama is also doing well. Real well.
