The young mother Jasmine and her partner are excited to meet their baby - or babies, we should say - they're expecting twins! But hers isn't a normal set of twins: Her girls share the same amniotic sac. Not only is this very rare, but it also presents a number of dangers.
There is a large risk that the umbilical cords will get tangled and endanger the lives of the unborn babies. And for Jasmine, this fear becomes a reality: her cords knot up. If one of the cords gets cut off because of this knot, there is a high risk that one of her babies won't get enough provision to survive.
But it only gets worse. At her final ultrasound, the doctors tell Jasmine that the umbilical cord has wrapped itself around one of her baby's necks. There is no way she will be able to give birth naturally.
There is tension in the air as the hospital staff prepare for a C-section. Thankfully the soon-to-be mom has a full staff of competent doctors.
And suddenly, Jasmine's first daughter is brought into this world.
And shortly afterwards the second baby girl! Despite the risks, both newborns are well and can breathe on their own.
But since this is such a rarity in pregnancy, the surprised doctors decide to take a picture of the knotted umbilical cords. They can't believe it.
Jasmine and her sweet baby girls had to travel a bumpy road before they could meet each other, but they managed to cross every hurdle so far and will face whatever comes next together.
This happy smile says it all - these girls have a bright future ahead of them.
With these two troublemakers, the new mom will certainly have her hands full, but two bundles of joy means double the love!
