Sisters Give Birth on the Same Day, at the Same Hospital, Just Minutes Apart

Something tells us these two cousins are going to be pretty close. In Tampa, Florida, a pair of sisters went into spontaneous labor and gave birth to their babies just minutes apart.

Sarah Hittmeier and Crystal Wingate are sisters who live nearly next door to one another on their family's farm. They were placed in adjacent rooms at St. Joseph's Women's Hospital on March 8 when both women went into labor. The first baby, Liam, was born just 13 minutes before his cousin, Wyatt (and we suspect Liam will routinely pull out the "I'm the oldest" card as they grow up). 

"It was a race," said aunt Gina Bailey in a news release issued by the hospital.

Liam and Wyatt join a large, and from the sounds of things, tight-knit family. Sarah Hittmeier has two other children, ages 4 and 2, with her husband, Alex Santiago. Crystal and Royce Wingate have three other children, ages 6, 4 and 3.
