Two sets of identical twins born

HOUSTON: After struggling through three years of fertility treatments, Jeffery and Sheryl McGowen has been blessed with identical twins. Twice. Sheryl McGowen gave birth to two sets of identical twins via Caesarean section at the Women’s Hospital of Texas in Houston early this week.

The first twins born are named Jacob and Jacoby, and the second two were named Justin and Jason. The four brothers, who were about 10 weeks early, weigh between 1.5 kg and one kg. The odds of two pairs of identical being born during the same pregnancy are about one out of 11 million, the McGowens’ doctors told them.
