accreditation

An operating theatre 'scrub' confessed to being "astonished" after beating odds of one in 500 000 – by becoming a mom to three sets of twins.

Growing up, Misty Lang, 35, dreamed of becoming a mom to one or two children, only to end up with seven: Alex and Lexie, 9; Calista, 7; Lacie and Nash, 5; and Lana and Phoenix, 10 weeks. All but one of her pregnancies were with twins.

Misty herself has a twin brother but she'd thought that the twin genes would skip a generation. Watch the full story above.
