Julia Grovenburg of Arkansas is giving the woman with two vaginas a run for her money in the race for Medical Anomaly of the Year. She was already pregnant when she went for a sonogram and—surprise!—the doc discovered that a second, younger, baby was in there as well. In other words, she’s carrying two babies that aren’t twins—they were conceived three weeks apart. This phenomenon is called “superfetation” and it’s very rare. Pretty freaky, no? [Lemondrop]

The blonde Dr. in the video does not inspire much confidence that she knows what she’s talking about. But, to be fair, she is probably just not comfortable on tv/doing interviews. All the same, watching her made me a little uncomfortable FOR her.

My best friend is one of these babies.
His mom was pregnant with him. And then got pregnant again three months into the pregnancy. His brother was born three months premature because his womb ruptured during labor.
It’s so crazy to look at them together because they’re twins, but they’re not.

That’s crazy. Kinda cool (assuming a good outcome), but crazy.

Let’s just hope that they have the same father.
