Woman gives birth to "super twins" conceived three weeks apart

A woman in the U.K. recently gave birth to two babies at the same time — but they were conceived three weeks apart. Rebecca Roberts gave birth to so-called "super twins" in September after going through fertility treatment that resulted in her getting pregnant twice and carrying the babies at the same time.

Roberts told CBS News she and her husband, Rhys, had been trying to conceive a baby for more than a year, and at 38, she was worried she couldn't get pregnant because of her age. The couple went to a fertility clinic in Bath, England and Roberts took a drug to help her with ovulation. "On my first cycle on that drug we became pregnant," Roberts told CBS News via email. That was February 2020, when Roberts didn't know more was to come.
