Black and White Twins -Again!

Dean Durrant and Alison Spooner of Fleet, Hants, England had twins seven years ago, two girls, Hayleigh appearing black, Lauren appearing white. The odds of such a combination are quite high -but now they've done it again! Alison gave birth to twin girls November 13th. Miya has dark skin and Leah appears white.

Alison said: "I was shocked when I first found out I was pregnant with twins again — but I never thought for one second they would turn out the same as last time.

After the babies were born they weren’t breathing properly, so they were taken to a special care unit.

It wasn’t until about five days after they were born that we saw them side by side for the first time.

And when they were together it was clear that one was darker than the other. It was unbelievable."

The babies are now home and reported healthy. Link -Thanks, Sharyn Bramscher!
