Shocking! Twins Has Two Different Fathers(heteropaternal Superfecundation) by dalongjnr: 6:30pm On May 12, 2015 |
A woman in New Jersey was shocked after a DNA test revealed that her 20-month-old twins have two different fathers. Court documents identifies the mother as T.M. She needed DNA tests to be done on her 20-month old babies in order to establish paternity, so, the father can pay for child support. But, the DNA test revealed the twins have different fathers. It was further revealed that she was with another man, the same week she must have conceived the twins with her former partner. Scientists claim this phenomenon known as “heteropaternal superfecundation ” is very rare (about 1 in 13,000 of such reported cases), but yet, very possible. Heteropaternal superfecundation occurs when two or more of a woman's eggs are fertilized by different men within the same ovulation period. This is because a woman can release more than one egg during ovulation. In addition, sperm can live up to 5 days in a woman. Hence, the possibility of multiple conception by different fathers. The experts testified at court saying “The twins born to T.M. were born from two eggs that were fertilized from different fathers during the same menstrual cycle.” This is not the first time this would be happening, in May 2009, 11-month-old Dallas-born twins Justin and Jordan were reported to have different fathers, same as Jayla and Julius in April 2011.
