Mom with 2 wombs is double-pregnant

MURRAY, Utah (CNN/KSL) - Finding out you're pregnant can be an exciting moment for any woman. Learning that there are two babies on the way can turn excitement to nervousness. But what about learning that you're expecting two babies at different times?

Angie Cromar's first ultrasound revealed something shocking to her and her doctor.

"Angie and I both had the look of surprise," said Dr. Steve Terry.

The ultrasound revealed separate babies at slightly different stages of development.

"I'm five weeks and four days in one, and six weeks and one day in the other," Angie explained.

Angie was born with a rare condition called uterus didelphys , meaning she has two uteruses. It was never an issue in her other pregnancies, but this time she conceived in both. The chances of that happening are one in five million, according to her doctor.

"Probably less than 100, so far, worldwide, have been reported; so she's a member of a small, elite club," said Dr. Terry.

First, she had to break the news to her husband. Then the reality set in. As a labor and delivery nurse, Angie knows this rarity can bring about complications like pre-term labor and low birth weight.

"Oh, I'm a little nervous, just because I know what can happen, but I'm really excited," said Angie.

The babies are already creating a buzz for the family which is now buying double of everything.
