Title: Doctors discover twins have different dads (not FL)
Post by: RobJohnson on May 19, 2009, 01:03:22 PM
A Texas mother of twins got the shock of her life when doctors revealed that her 11-month-old boys do not have the same father.

Mia Washington decided to get some expert advice when she and her partner noticed that twins Justin and Jordan had different facial features.

Paternity tests then revealed what had happened — two eggs had been fertilized by two different sperm and there was a 99.99% chance the twins had different dads.

She actually went on TV to talk about it???

I read that article, and what struck me immediately was the fact that her husband was not pissed, nor mentioned, so I assumed there isn't one.

"Sperm can survive up to five days inside a woman's body, so a woman could sleep with different men several days apart, and get pregnant not once, but twice."

"I guess I'm lucky", the mother said,  "I coulda had 32 babies".

Wasn't there a case of "twins" and one was black and the other white?  I think it was in England last year or the year before.

There was a case of one black, one white in Germany a few years back.

Yeah, but I don't think that there was any mention of the possibility of two dads. 

There is This Case (http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News/Black-And-White-Twins-Born-Dean-Durrant-And-Alison-Spooners-Second-Set-Of-Different-Coloured-Twins/Article/200812415195720).  Apparently their mother is white and the father is black.

Actually, if you Google: twins black white, quite a few different cases pop up.

Maybe it's time for this woman to find a new hobby.
