Baby in India born with 2 faces, 4 arms & 4 legs

A 40-year-old woman in Uttar Pradesh, India was rushed to the hospital after she experienced labour pains on Sunday (21 July) night local time.

On Monday (22 July) morning, the woman gave birth to a baby with two faces, four arms, and four legs, according to ARY News.

The hospital staff were shocked by the sight of the malformed child and quickly moved the infant outside.

As a result, many curious villagers flocked to the hospital to have a look at the “miraculous newborn”.

According to the Free Press Journal, her husband noted that she had given birth to an extraordinary child.

The woman hails from Kiratapur village in India’s Uttar Pradesh.

Infant dies hours after being born

Daily Mail reported that the baby’s condition was uncommon.

Doctors told Ms Rama that she might have been carrying conjoined twins, but one of the babies was not fully formed.

Instead, the limbs of the underdeveloped baby joined with the stronger twin’s body, reported Newsflare.
