Rachael,
Are you planning on attending the ICAN conference in Syracuse April 20-22? I may be going and was looking to see if anyone else from this area was also planning on attending so we could car pull and may be share a room.

Women with 2 wombs gives birth to triplets
12/23/2006
LONDON (AP) - A woman with two wombs has given birth to triplets, in what is
believed to the first case of its kind, a hospital official said Friday.
Hannah Kersey, 23, gave birth to three girls in September, said Richard Dottle,
a spokesman for Southmead Hospital in Bristol where the babies were born. The
children spent nine weeks in the hospital.
The girls - identical twins delivered from one womb and a third fraternal
sibling from the other - were delivered by Caesarean section seven weeks early,
the British Broadcasting Corp. reported.
Kersey and her partner Mick Faulkner said they were "over the moon"
at how healthy and happy the girls were.
Separate or partially joined wombs are uncommon - about one woman in 1,000 has
them, according to Yakoub Khalaf, a consulting gynecologist at Guy's and St.
Thomas's Hospital.
Simultaneous pregnancies in two separate wombs are almost unheard of - Khalaf
said he had identified only 70 cases over the past 50 years worldwide - and the
delivery of triplets from two wombs has never before been recorded
