Sarah Mariuz and Leah Rodgers, 35, reportedly welcomed the first born children into the world on June 30, 2016 at exactly 1:18 a.m in their respective cities.

The babies were born at the same time in their respective time zones as Rodgers gave birth first, welcoming a baby boy at 1:18 am in Denver, Colorado while Mariuz welcomed a daughter at 1:18 am in La Jolie, California.

Speaking with The People, Mariuz says:

"It's that magical twin connection I suppose. There have just been certain things in our life where things just match up – it's odd.

"We didn't plan being pregnant at the same time. But our journeys aligned, even giving birth! Twins have a special bond, it's hard to explain."

Rodgers said:

"We were at our older sister's wedding recently, and, well, two pregnant chicks together, people couldn't stop talking about this.

"They kept asking us, 'Was it planned?' No! It was kind of entertaining."

Stranger things have happened of course, but will always be cause for amazement.
