A Romanian woman who gave birth to a baby boy in December is expecting his twin brother at the end of January.
Maricica Tescu, 37, from Carlig in Iasi county, knew she was expecting twins but didn't expect a two month gap between the babies.
The first baby, a boy, was born on December 11, when the mother was in her seventh month of pregnancy.
The second baby, also a boy, is doing fine in his mother's womb and is expected to be born at the end of January.
Doctors said this is a unique case in Romania and there have only been a few such cases worldwide.
They explained the woman has a double uterus and each of the babies developed separately.
The babies' parents don't know yet if their children will be considered twins because they were born in different years.
