Woman gives birth to baby boy and girl less than 12 months apart

She's dubbed the babies 'Irish twins'

A woman has shared her experience after giving birth to a baby boy and girl less than 12 months apart. Lorena Hinnawi gave birth to her son Massimo on November 27, 2020. But she soon learned she was pregnant with a girl, and her baby daughter Camila was born on October 26, 2021. Hinnawi has dubbed the siblings 'Irish twins' as they were born within a year of each other and has shared her experience on TikTok. “Coming home from the hospital with one baby,” Hinnawi captioned one video. “Just to find out I’m pregnant again . . . Now my baby has a baby. I can’t wait to watch them grow up together.”

"WOW, you guys didn’t waste any time,” someone commented. “I don’t know how you do it,” another said, with a third adding: “Oh god, you must have your hands full.” And others shared their own experiences with Irish twins. “My mum has 6 kids and three are under three,” one person wrote. “This happened to me 10 months apart, boy and girl,” another said.
