A British woman has 2 wombs who have just given birth at one time . 3 children, and are considered the first woman in the world to have this rare ability.

After staying in the hospital for 9 weeks to get care, all 3 girls have just arrived home in good health.
According to reports, in the last 100 years, only 70 women were reported to be pregnant in both wombs. The chance for a woman with 2 uterus to have twins from a uterus or give birth to 2 babies from 2 wombs is very low: 5 million new people have 1 person.
Meanwhile, the proportion of women who give birth to three babies from the uterus is extremely low, only 1 / 25,000,000. In the UK, pregnancy in 2 uterus, called a double uterus, accounts for 1 / 1,000.
In Hannah's case, 3 babies were fertilized from 2 eggs - 1 uterus with 1 egg, at the same time by 2 different sperms. After that, 1 egg is divided, creating 2 twin babies, while the other one develops into a single baby.
Hannah and her husband Mick Faulkner said they were " incredibly happy " to see all three girls were healthy and happy. Hannah said enthusiastically: ' This is a lovely and incredible 3 children, each of them has very different personalities '.
'Grace seems to be the' leader '- probably because it was born in a separate womb, while Ruby has a very relaxed and gentle appearance, having fun sitting around watching what's going on around her. me Tilly - Ruby's twin - wants to be on the same level as the other two and doesn't want to be abandoned. '
Dr. Simon Grant, a counselor at Southmead Hospital, who gave birth to Hannah, said: 'There are very few women giving birth in both wombs, but this particular case is probably first time in the world '.
Mr. Ellis Downes, gynecologist and obstetric consultant at Chase Farm Hospital in London, said: 'It's amazing! The fact that women have 2 wombs and 1 baby in each womb is still available, but there has never been a case of two babies in this womb and the third in the uterus'.
Mr. Peter Bowen-Simpkins, a leading expert in this field, said: 'It is really rare for a woman to be pregnant and give birth as in this case. Hannah was extremely lucky '.
Richard Warren, of the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, said that most cases of two wombs happen randomly, but there are also cases of genetics in some families.
Hannah's mother and sister also have 2 wombs.
