A US woman has stunned doctors by achieving a rare medical marvel - falling pregnant while pregnant.
Julia Grovenburg and her husband Todd were shocked to learn she would be giving birth to two babies, but not twins.

The couple attended an ultrasound appointment believing Mrs Grovenburg was just over eight weeks pregnant.

But the scan showed two babies, separated by two-and-a-half weeks - with one clearly more developed than the other.

"[When] she said, 'and baby number two has got a healthy little heartbeat,' - I just started gagging," Mrs Grovenburg told broadcaster KFSM-TV in Arkansas.

"[We were] both in shock," her husband added.

He went on: "We were trying to put the timelines together and everything.

"We had known she had had a migraine and been at the hospital and actually had a pregnancy test at the time that one would've been conceived, "

His wife continued: "We feel blessed to have something so rare and as of this point they're perfectly healthy."

Doctors suspect an extraordinarily uncommon situation called superfetation, which means conceiving when already pregnant.
