They went from a family of two to a family of six in less than two years! 😮
Britney and Frankie Alba welcomed their second set of identical twins, Lydia and Lynlee, this past November. Britney Alba found out she was pregnant with the girls six months after delivering their first set of identical twin brothers, Levi and Luka., also known as “MoMo” or “Mono Mono” twins, meaning they shared the same placenta and amitotic sac in the womb. It is a rare and high-risk pregnancy, with an occurrence of 1 in 35,000 to 1 in 60,000 pregnancies in the United States.
At 24 weeks, MoMo twins develop a risk for cord entanglement that can result in a stillbirth. Because of this, Britney Alba was checked into the hospital at 24 weeks pregnant so doctors could monitor the twins. “It was definitely a very challenging time in our lives and in our marriage, but it was definitely worth it,” Frankie Alba said.
