On Sunday, a 21-year-old woman gave birth to a baby boy with two heads, three arms and two legs in a village in vidsha District, Madhya Pradesh, India.
The times of India reported on November 25 that doctors in hospitals in the region said that only one heart could be seen in the ultrasonic examination of newborns. However, the media reported that her husband said that during the ultrasonic examination two months ago, they were told that they would have twins.
Eventually, the babies were found to have the same internal organs, including the heart, but different heads. The parents said, 'we were shocked. It's incredible. Everyone is shocked to see them. We can't believe our children have two heads. "
The doctors in this hospital have never experienced such a delivery in their career, and they are discussing with other medical staff in India what to do next.
At present, the babies are receiving intensive treatment in the hospital's intensive care unit, but it is unclear whether they are suitable for any surgery.
Ajiwa and his wife from bashada village, vidsha region, Madhya Pradesh, India married 18 months ago and have been eagerly waiting for their first child.
Mrs. ajiva told a local news agency, 'when the nurses handed over the children to me, my mood was very complicated. At first, I thought it was twins, but when the nurse took away the towel, I was shocked to find that our first child had two heads and three hands. "
She said, 'all we want is a normal and healthy child, but God wants to punish us like this. I don't know why. "
