MAPLEWOOD, NJ, - DECEMBER 6: Emily and Kate brush their teeth together before bed. They had not initially planned on being pregnant at the same time. When Kate had troubles conceiving, she asked Emily to try. Emily became pregnant immediately, and in the three week interim between her pregnancy and Kate winding down on her fertilization treatments, Kate also became pregnant. They said that while it wasnât what they had originally planned for, they were going to embrace the challenge head on and were excited about bringing two new additions to their home in Maplewood. âThey are due only three weeks apart, so itâs not exactly like having twins, but itâs close,â Kate says. In the end, the babies were born only four days apart: one eleven days early, and one eleven days late, just before Christmas. Photo by Sara Naomi Lewkowicz/Getty Images Reportage
