From Times Staff and Wire Reports
After giving birth to six children, Anita Duarte thought she was done having kids and had her fallopian tubes removed. But she is pregnant again, this time with twins.
“For some reason, God felt we needed two more,” husband A.J. Duarte said.
The family is baffled but happy. Anita Duarte’s doctor said her case is extremely rare.
The Duartes have six children ages 2 to 14. They sold or gave away all of their baby clothes and furniture after Anita Duarte’s surgery. “It’s like preparing for our first baby,” A.J. Duarte said.
The twins are due in October.
