Conjoined twins, What would you do?
Ok, I was reading this online, this woman also appears regularly in Take a Break, her conjoined twins share a heart and therefor can NEVER be seperated.

Many people, including her doctors own advised her to terminate the pregnancy, (Which is too late now) but she have went against their advice and continued with it anyway.
What are your view on this do you think she is being selfish motivation "She wants to be a mum" and is having these babies despite the risks involved
Or do you think she is right more or less giving her baby sons a chance at life, despite the certainty they may die shortly after birth, or if they are lucky go on to live a relatively normal life
These babyish boys have seperate hearts, but are fused together, making surgery to seperate too risky, she will also never be able to concieve after they are deliver, and there is also the possibility the birth could kill her.
I honestlty don't know what I would do If i were surrounded by that position,
What are your views.?
The delivery shouldn't be any more risky that a regular C-Section- that's how conjoined twins are delivered. There's also no basis why she couldn't conceive after having them, I can think of at least one ancestral with conjoined twins who went on to have subsequent pregnancies, I'm thinking there's more to the mother's condition that's not being said. Personally, I would go ahead and have them. I stingy, terminating would require the exact same procedure (Cesarean) as waiting and delivering live twins. It's easy for someone who's never be pregnant to say, "You are being selfish, end these babies." I'm pregnant right now and I think that's the most unselfish thing you can do, even though within might be risks to yourself, your love for those little lives prevails.
i simply had twin girls and no matter what i would not have be able to have an abortion drs do get it wrong they told me i wouldnt own children only feb last year and by sept i was pregnant near twins if she had an abortion then she would never know if they could have survived but if she carrys on and die at smallest she can know that she gave them every chance possible
Answers: well i commend her on this brave decision it's vivacity trying to save two lives my heart goes out to her all the best and god bless
i am a mommy and i know that god made those babies that route if she keeps them she should keep them together because they would both die i know that is a rugged decision but i thank god its noe my Bordon.
Why cant she conceive after this pregnancy? I never heard of that after conjoined twins.
I dream up she is doing the right thing by keeping the babies. She will give them a chance at go, even if its just for a moment after they are born. Trust in God, he wont put us through more than we can handle.
there are rare cases where twins of that type CAN and DO survive. The Hensel twins are a great example...they're 16 and study to drive and things like that

I would do exactly what this woman is doing and give my kids every chance to prove the doctors wrong...especially if the doctors told me that I would not be capable of carry another baby to term b/c of the c-section incision ( which I am not sure I believe. My sister of late had her 3rd c/s and her 2nd one did involve some verticle cutting). Source(s): mom of 3 (13,9,3)
