What this Woman Delivered is Quite Shocking , She Was Expecting Twin Babies ( See Photo)


A mother who had no idea her twin daughters would be
born conjoined, has now been forced to decide whether
she wants her babies separated, despite knowing that it
may kill one or both of them.
Taslima Khatun Uno, of North Bangladesh, said she
didn’t even know she was pregnant with twins before
she gave birth in July.
“The doctors shouted, ‘Two babies! Give them medicine,
we have to save their lives,'” Khatun Uno recalled,
knowing nothing more than the fact that one of her
babies may not have been healthy.
“The whole night, I heard two crying sounds,” she
recalled. It was her husband, Mohammed Rafiqul Islam,
who met the twins first.
“The doctors told me, ‘Here are your twins, they are
conjoined from the head,'” Rafiqul Islam said. “I had
never seen babies like this and I was nervous.

According to Barcroft Media, Khatun Uno had
experienced a healthy pregnancy and ultrasounds
revealed no abnormalities until her second to last
month of pregnancy, where doctors told her the baby’s
head was growing bigger than the body.
Doctors gave her medicine for the condition. Khatun
Uno said they didn’t even consider she might have been
carrying twins, joined at
the head.
Although Khatun Uno told her husband that her
daughters, Rabia and Rukia, are beautiful despite their
rare condition, “for their future it’s necessary to
separate the girls, they are not having a healthy life.”
But according to their pediatric surgeon, Rohu Rahim,
“this is not like any other surgery. It is a difficult and
complicated operation and will be a team effort,” he
said, adding that it is possible for both the babies to
die in the process, or one to die and one to live.
The other complication in the decision is money. Rafiqul
Islam and Khatun Uno, who are both teachers, do not
believe they will be able to afford the surgery.
“We are asking the government to help us,” Rafiqul
Islam said. “Surgery will be costly and it’s not possible
for us to bear this cost.”
