The Mom Who Refused to Give Up on Her Mono Mono Twins

from Our American Stories · host iHeartPodcasts

On this episode of Our American Stories, for years, Lex Ginger was told pregnancy might never happen because of PCOS and a blood-clotting disorder that made miscarriage far more likely. Then, after becoming pregnant, doctors discovered she was carrying mono-mono twins, a rare and dangerous condition in which identical twins share the same sac and placenta. Some warned the babies had only a 50 percent chance of surviving the first trimester, but Lex chose to celebrate her pregnancy anyway. Here’s her remarkable story.
