They say that lightning never strikes twice – but one couple are coping with double-double trouble after they had their second set of twins in less than three years.
When Adel and Blane Pearson discovered they were having twins three years ago, they thought it was a fantastic surprise. But the couple were stunned when Adel fell pregnant a second time – and learned she was again expecting twins.
Now they are regarded as a ‘one in a million’ family by experts because the first set of twins – Grace and Ruby – are non-identical while the latest arrivals – Isla Mae and Isobel – are identical.
All four girls were conceived naturally, without the need for any IVF treatment, and there is no history of twins in their families.
