A woman who was told she might not be able to have children because she was born with two vaginas has given birth to miracle twins.

Lauren Cotter, 34, was diagnosed with uterus didelphys when she was just 16 after suffering from agonising menstrual cramps as a teenager.

Doctors warned Lauren the condition – which sees women born with two uteruses, two cervixes and, in her case, two vaginas – may impact her ability to carry and deliver a child, due to the reduced size of her wombs and cervixes.

The 34-year-old fell pregnant with her first child – five-year-old Amelie – at the age of 28, and two years later fell pregnant with Harvey, three.

Lauren then fell pregnant again, this time with twins Maya and Evie, who were conceived while she was fitted with the contraceptive implant.

All three of her girls were carried in her right womb while Harvey was in her left.
