A woman in Bangladesh gave birth to a boy, but was in for a surprise when only 26 days later she then delivered twins, in an very rare occurrence in medical history.

Arifa Sultana Iti was rushed to Ad-din hospital in the southwestern city of Jessore on March 22 to hospital after she fell ill and delivered a girl and a boy through Caesarean section.

Iti, hails from Shyamlagachhi village in Sharsha in Jessore, had given premature birth on February 25 to a baby boy at Khulna Medical College Hospital.

Sheila Poddar, the chief of the hospital's gynaecology department who attended the woman, said she discovered in an ultrasonography test that Iti has two uteruses.

The first baby was born from one womb, while the twins were born from the other womb, she said.

Poddar said that the mother and the babies are doing well: "It's a rare incident. I have seen such a case for the first time. I had not even heard about such incident before,"

The father is reportedly very happy that his children and wife are alright after this strange medical episode.
