Premature twins separated at birth hug after meeting for first time outside womb 💜
Ann’s identical twin girls shared the same amniotic sac. Known as monochorionic monoamniotic twins, it's one of the highest risk twin pregnancies possible.Every fortnight from the 10 week mark Ann had ultrasounds to ensure the girls were progressing as they should be.
Doctors decided the girls needed to come out at 28 weeks and five days after fearing one of the girls was in distress. Ann said: “It wasn't long before they pulled Olivia out who let out a loud cry. Zoe came next but was breech, so after a bit of pulling, the doctor managed to get her out.Monochorionic Monoamnionic twins are identical twins which share the same sac and placenta.
These twins are extremely rare and the biggest risk with this pregnancy is that the umbilical cords - which are separate - will get tangled and knotted resulting in impaired blood flow to one or both of the babies.
