In Finland, twin sisters gave birth on the same day at Turku Hospital — YLE News
In Turku, Finland, twin sisters gave birth to children on the same day at the same hospital. As YLE News reports, the deliveries took place at Turku University Hospital.
A coincidence during childbirth
The coincidences did not end there: the same midwife and medical student were present during both sisters' deliveries. The women's clinic at Turku University Hospital reported the case on Instagram.
More current news is available on the UA.News Telegram channel Telegram.
In the clinic's post, a photo was published of the midwife Johanna together with the two mothers and their newborn children. The authors of the post noted the rarity of a situation in which twin sisters give birth on the same day and the same midwife works at both deliveries.
