Not Engaged Yet

This is crazy...

"Warsaw - A pair of twins born in Poland have different fathers, Polish media reported Monday - in apparently only the seventh such case in the world.

The twins' mother became pregnant while she was having relations with her husband and also having an affair, reported broadcaster TVN 24.

The woman, whose name was not given, filed for a divorce after giving birth to the twins, one male and one female.

The woman later conducted tests to prove her husband was not the father of either child.

The tests showed, however, that the husband was the father of the baby boy, while the other man was the baby girl's father.

Such rare cases are possible when a woman produces two eggs and has sex with another partner while she's ovulating, local media reported."

I didn't even know this was possible.

    Wouldn't it be weird to be one of those kids and have a twin half-brother or sister?

    Yeah, I knew this was possible, but MAN, it's so unlikely! Crazy. I've never come remotely close to, ahem, a situation where this would be possible.

    Or explaining that in school. This is my sister. We have the same birthday and the same Mother, but different daddys.

    I'm about 95% sure this was on a Soap Opera at some point but its still weird as hell. Hallmark does not make that greeting.

    Yeah. It's crazy. My best friend is actually one of those kinds of twins. She's the daughter of her mother's previous husband and her twin brother is the son of her mother's current husband. It's freaking mind boggling but also very possible.

    Uck.  What a horrible thing to dump on newborns:  the story of how their twin is actually their half-sibling and how their mother is a slvt.
