Only One Is Mine…


A Chinese man is suing for divorce after discovering that he is the father of only one of his twins.

Liu Yuan of Nanjing city says he noticed the difference between the babies the day they were born, reports Longhu Network.

“The baby that came out first was much bigger than the second, who was very weak and sickly,” he said.

The dad says he started to be suspicious when the second baby turned out to have a different blood type, paired with the fact that it doesn’t look like him.

Liu had his own and the two babies’ DNA tested - and discovered that he was the biological father of only the bigger twin.

“My wife admitted that she’d had sex with her former boyfriend after we got married,” he said.

Doctors explain that it’s quite rare, but possible, since a man’s sperm can survive for 72 hours in a woman’s body.

Believe it or not, there are actually statistics for this exact situation so it must happen more than most families are willing to admit. National Georgraphic reports that:

for every 400 sets of fraternal twins, one set is made up of twins who will have different fathers.

One of The Baker Quintuplets Passes Away


I am sad to write that one of the quintuplets born to Tim and Lori Baker last month has passed away.

Lori Baker tells 13news, Kailee Jo, the first of the five babies to be born last month, died on Friday.

Kailee Jo was just one month old.

On October 27, Lori Baker gave birth to the five babies at Cabell Huntington hospital. At birth, the three girls and two boys all weighed over two pounds.

Kailee is survived by her mother Lori and father Tim, siblings, Chloe Paige, Hunter Logan, Aiden James and Emma Lynn, as well as, big sister Whitney.

The babies were born at 30 weeks gestation, which is above average for quintuplets.

We hope that the rest of the babies are doing well. More information to come as it becomes available.

5 Week Old Baby Gets Heart Transplant


The parents of one of Britain’s youngest heart transplant survivors spoke yesterday of their gratitude to a German family who donated their dead baby’s heart.

Andrew McAskie, now 11 months old, had a heart attack at birth and was close to death when a family whose one-year-old baby had died made their offer. The heart was flown from Germany to the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle upon Tyne and, five weeks after he was born, Andrew underwent a transplant.

The Freeman Hospital performed Britain’s first successful baby heart transplant more than 20 years ago on Kaylee Davidson, who was 5 months old. She is now a healthy young woman. Since then nine babies younger than Andrew have had heart transplants in Britain, including one in 1989 who was 5 days old. Of those still alive, Andrew is the second-youngest.
