Twins are born in different years in California

In the coming years, Aylin and Alfredo Trujillo, who were born on New Year’s Eve, may feel special in a crowd, as they are twins. But they will certainly have a good story to tell about their birthdays, which fall into different days, months and years.

At 11:45 pm on New Year’s Eve in 2021, Fátima gave birth to her son Alfredo Antonio Trujillo in Salinas, California. Fifteen minutes later, when the clock struck midnight and hospital workers celebrated the New Year, Aylin was born.

“It was a surprise,” the mother, 28-year-old Fatima Madrigal, told Reuters on Tuesday in an interview in Greenfield, California.

The twins were born two weeks before the expected date, which was January 16th. Aylin was born at 2.66 kg, while his older brother came into the world at 2.75 kg.

Madrigal said her partner, Robert Trujillo, and their three other children, ages 11, 3 and 1, were excited about the arrival of the babies.

For now, the twins will celebrate birthdays on the same day and in the same year, Madrigal said.

“I will explain as best I can. When they’re older, if they want to celebrate their birthdays in different years, it’s up to them, but now that they’re little and they’re with me, they’ll celebrate together,” he said.
