Chinese woman with two wombs gives birth
From Xinhua News Agency: "A 25-year-old Chinese peasant woman with two wombs has become the proud mother of a pair of baby girls after 39 weeks of pregnancy in both wombs. . . . The mother has a pair of vaginas and wombs by genetic inheritance. . . . Experts say about one out of a thousand women have two wombs, most of whom are more likely to have miscarriages or premature babies and only one out of a million can have two babies delivered full term." (Link snagged from World Sex News.)
One out of a thousand women have two wombs? The woman has two vaginas? Is this one of those "Russian chess computer electrocutes opponent who defeats it" stories? Or have I somehow missed knowing these facts in all these years?
