I just read that it's possible for women to have 2 wombs.

 

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3011241.stm

 

And women with this condition (approx. 1 in every 55000 women) can also have 4 kidneys. It supposedly has something to do with the womb being formed in the 8th week of pregnancy, the same time the kidneys are formed.

Although I have no clue what the connection between the two would be.

 

Does anyone have more info on this???

 

correction: another site (i lost it) had the 55000 number. In the article which is linked at the top, says one in a 1000 women have this. It's even possible for these women to have to vagina's and two cervixes!!
