Unusual: Croatia Twin Babies Born In Different Years

An hospital head in the coastal town of Split has announced the bizzare birth of twin girls in Croatia who are born minutes apart but in different years.

The hospital head disclosed this one Wednesday stating that the girls will celebrate their birthdays on different dates

One of the girls was born at 23:59 (2259 GMT) on December 31, and the other a minute after midnight on January 1, an official told AFP at a hospital in the coastal town of Split, where the babies were born.

“It is really an unusual situation,” head of the hospital’s perinatology department Damir Roje told local media.

He added that although he had seen twins born over different days before, it was the first time in his professional career that he had seen twin babies born over different years.

The tiny difference means the family will celebrate one of the girls’ birthdays on New Year’s Eve and the other one on New Year’s Day, he said.
