Lesbian partners each gave birth to twins on the same day

”We had been trying on and off for three years and we were exhausted. We had tried using my eggs and a sperm donor and we had tried using Martha’s eggs in me. We had literally tried everything and had spent tens of thousands of pounds on treatment. So when Martha said to me that we should both have her eggs implanted, I thought, ”Why not?”’
