Conjoined Twins: How’s Life for Abby & Brittany Hensel Having only 1 Body

Even the parents of the conjoined twins did not expect their condition. Their mother, Patty, is an emergency nurse while their father, Mike, was a landscaper. The then-pregnant Patty also went through ultrasound in the course of her pregnancy.

The ultrasound results showed that she was only carrying a single fetus. There was also no sign of rare congenital disabilities and conditions detected during her pregnancy. However, Mike heard two heartbeats.
