India: A 32yr Old Woman Delivers A Two Headed Baby




A thirty two-year-old Sharma northern India and her husband from could not get regular ultrasound scans done due to lack of funds. As a result, they found out just two weeks beforehand that the baby was suffering from a serious complication.
The baby girl, who was born by C-section and weighed 7lbs 7oz, was delivered with two heads, two necks, two spines, but only one tiny body. The baby girl is technically considered to be conjoined twins, and they suffer from a rare condition called dicephalic parapagus, states a Hollywood Life report. She is presently alive and healthy.
A "meticulous and challenging" surgery could be the key to saving the twins' life, but the procedure can't take place until they are in stable condition, Dr Sehgal said. 
The doctor did not confirm whether or not the surgery would be separating the babies or just easing their 'conjoined' condition.
