Two-Headed Baby Born in China
In Guang Zhou China, a two headed baby boy was born.
In between his heads, there was also a 3rd arm with only one finger.
The hospital also did an ultrasound and found the baby had two hearts. Everything was normal below the heart, one stomach, two kidneys, two legs.
The baby’s symptom is very rare, with similar cases reported in Iran, Indonesia and some other countries.
His parents gave up the custody after they realized their child was not normal. The doctor said that the surgery can be preformed for a joined body baby, but not in this case. The new born was in very critical condition and died ten hours later.
Doctors also asserted that the mother was 39 year-old, if she would had herself checked out during the first three months of pregnancy she could have prevented having a deformed baby like this.

Why would God allow that? If its two hearts, two souls, but recently in Vietnam a baby was born, 2 heads, necks, stomachs but ONE HEART. Is this then one soul?

The soul is not contained within the physical heart. If that were the case, when someone had a heart transplant they would get a new soul.

Remember that you cannot miss what you never had. Life would likely not be as bad for this child had it survived and been healthy as it would if someone started out normal and then somehow ended up in this state (hypothetically).
I’ve a friend whose been in a wheelchair his entire life, and while he has trouble and needs help, he has no hard feelings about it.
Another young man I know broke his neck in his early twenties and he is still fighting hard to deal with his condition. While he’s paralyzed, he does have much more freedom and function then my friend whose always been that way.
Lori and Reba Shapell (Chappell?) are the oldest conjoined twins alive at this time, and they try to rejoice in every joy in life. They don’t know what it is like to be “normal” and so don’t miss it.
Though, I understand what you meant, and agree that I’d not like to be in that situation. Still, I think “normal” is overrated. lol
God bless these babies, and let them have another new experience in their next lives.

I would never give up my child(ren), no matter what the conditions are! I would have spent every minute with that baby and cherished the last hours of his life!
I am a mother of 7 children, going on 8, and I find it fulfilling when my ill children cry for me to comfort their pain and discomforts. No child deserves to be deserted, especially at the most frightening time of their lives!

That Rose chick is weird. Who was she talking to?
The baby had two heads because it was halfway a normal child conjoined with the second coming of Christ. Doctors in China are notorious for being terrified of Christ so they probably ended up just putting it in a microwave and then saying it wasn’t healthy and died.
The dad’s testicles were probably hooked up to car batteries just for the hell of it, too.

the baby had two heads and 2 hearts because it started off as twins, that never separated, much like conjoined twins. Except in this case something happened and the other twin failed to fully develop, therefore ending up with a baby with 2 heads, and 2 hearts.

Devin Corrieri, I do not think that you should speak on such matters when you obviously have not developed mentally as an intellectual where you can make sensible comments. You say you are glad you’re “normal.” Please tell me, what constitutes as normal?

It’s so sad… and the worst part is tht parents gave uo custody.. i mean how on earth can u leave ur kid even if he was abnormal. tht creature is the sweetest, most innocent thing on earth. I am not a mother, but I dream of having the chance somday soon. I just cannot imagine how parents can do such thing. Desert a part of ur own??

Oh and where do you think medical school get there infant specimens? From the wives of their professors? God you are so stupid. There is no doubt in my mind that the child is now in a jar in the basment of Beijin medical college.

The baby has passed away, the article says so, so there is nothing to lose.
Corpses, particularly of those who died from rare illnesses, are highly appreciated by medical researchers, in order to figure out the causes and prevent future cases like this.
My only gripe against James’ request is: you should try finding out how to get your hands on the body elsewhere, as this is hardly the best place to gather such data. Don’t be such a big moron. From your showing so grand stupidity, I would fear that instead of research, you would sell it to a freak show collection, you big idiot.

leave him alone. he’s growing up and the more people who make him think that it’s not okay to express his opinion, the less he will. and if everyone did that, this site would be completely pointless, right?

Isn’t there a limit on how many children you can have in China? Perhaps thats why they gave him up; or because they could not afford the medical care. Why judge the parents when you have no information on their situation or reasons.
I’m glad he was able to peacefully pass to a better place.

Actually, something cannot start as twins then fuse, it actually started as a single zygote then a disruption in the development process led to a growth of two separate CNS systems. This is quite likely to have occurred very early during the gestational process. Within 3 weeks of conception a mutation or disruption would have produced this effect in the single zygote.

I’m surprised that the fundamentalist christians in the world didnt run around screaming that a two headed person or animal is a harbringer of armagedon and say “god must kill the demon baby”. After all, they Slander things like dragons or other religions, so seeing a double headed living creature would make them instantly think “demon”.
Also there is a two headed girl born in America who’s now aged 15….Poor girl, I can imagine christians trying to fuck up her mind calling her a ‘demon’
Plus, there is a woman in holland who is 7 foot 5, and considered a giant. I’m surprised christians havent tried to kill her linking her to giants in the bible!
I know because I endured faatics who drove me mad with their rambling and even after 10 years, I STILL have their crap in my head, and it wont go away!
geez! such a Pathetic world we live in!

Please don’t bash Christians like that.
Christians do NOT act like that so please brush up on your knowledge before saying things that are not true.
God loves each and every one of us. No matter if we’re 7 foot 5 or we have two heads or an extra arm. In society, we’d be different, but in the eyes of God, we’re all equal.
I can only see Chinese people calling a 7 foot 5 person, demon.

No, you see the heart does not contain the soul, the soul is not contained in a place on the body but is of the body. You see the soul is created in conseption of the child, a child with two heads or two legs or two of anything is either a child with one soul and a deformity, or two children with two souls that mearly share one body. Some souls do die in the womb if they cannot live anymoe due to being connected to their sibling, but don't blame God for this tragity… The only cause for things like this, is human sin. If humans did not make sin in the first place… then babies like this would not need suffer.
Don't worry about them though, God has mercy and Judges them through the choices the make, these children has no choice, and God has saved their souls. (Jesus is just that great. =)

Holy crap, people. They were conjoined twins. They had two hearts, so it was obvious that it wasn't just a second head/parasitic twin stuck somewhere random, leeching the life from the host body.
What you are talking about are two people with one body. Not one person with an extra head just hanging on. If it was that black-and-white, then they would just cut the extra head off. But it is not. It iss a second person, mind and soul sharing a body with their identical twin The survival rate for conjoined twins is low, which is why there are only a few still alive. They probably died because of a heart problem
