AKRON, Ohio -- Aiden and Donavyn didn't wait until New Year's Day
to come screaming into the world, but the circumstances of their births
are still pretty special: The babies were born about two hours apart to
Ohio mothers who are identical twins.
The Akron Beacon Journal
reports that the 19-year-old mothers - Aimee and Ashlee Nelson - weren't
raised to do things alike and did not plan the births to come at the
same time. In fact, their due dates were about a week apart.
Aimee's
son, Donavyn Scott Bratten, was born just after noon on the last day of
2012. Ashlee's son, Aiden Lee Alan Dilts, made his appearance at about 2
p.m.
They were delivered by the same doctor at Summa Akron City Hospital.
