Woman Discovers She has Two Wombs
London resident Lindsay Hasaj assumed she was a pretty ordinary person for the first 27 years of her life. She had a nice job in financial sales, got married in July and two months later became pregnant.
Lindsay Hasaj and her husband are shown Jan. 4, 2009 in London. Hasaj is pregnant and her doctors discovered she has two reproductive systems.
