She was kept under special care in the hospital during pregnancy.
Newborn girls weighing 7.9 kilogram were born by emergency c-section on August 23. They were soon rushed to the Children Hospital for testing which showed that they were sharing a liver. They underwent a four-hour operation October 2.
