VIDISHA (MP): In a rare case, a woman in a village gave birth to a girl, only three months after she
delievered two pair of twins.

"It is an example of secondary-pregnancy which happens very rarely, but is not totally unexpected," Dr Abha Shukla of district hospital said.

The woman identified as Niloufer, a resident of Gazikhedi village in Vidisha district, gave birth to four children on January 19 this year.

 "The twins died soon after their birth," Inamuddin, the father of the children said.

Later during a sonography conducted on Niloufer, presence of more foetus was revealed.

She was referred to Bhopal's Sulatania Hospital, where she gave birth to a baby girl on April 26.

"Due to excess weight, one of the foetuses might have slipped in the fallopian tube and grew between the intestines. She was lucky that way," Shukla added.

The newborn is now over one month old and is quite healthy, Inamuddin said adding that they have named their daughter 'Faria', a person who brings cheer in life.
