‘We do everything together’: Twin sisters give birth to baby boys one day apart from each other

NEWBURGH, Ind. (WFIE/Gray News) - Twin sisters in Indiana gave birth to baby boys just one day apart from each other.

Madeline Majors and Erica Denney came to the Deaconess Women’s Hospital just hours apart.

Initially, the boys’ due dates were just 11 days apart, but things took a surprising change. Majors gave birth to Cooper on July 8, while her sister, Denney, gave birth to Archie on July 9.

“We do everything together, so I told Maddie the other day how boring would it have been if just one of us were pregnant,” Denney said. “You know the fact that we were doing it together, we were always doing the same thing.”

They said having rooms right next to each other made their whole experience easier.

“I can just walk over and be like hey, do you have a hairbrush or after Archie was born, when they had a second, we wheeled Cooper over to meet each other,” Majors said.

Cooper and Archie are Majors’ and Denney’s first children. They say having each other to lean on was special.

“It’s just awesome that they got to go through it together, you know, best friends and now they get to become best friends,” Andrew Denney, Erica’s husband said.

The two families currently live together while Erica and Andrew’s house is under renovation. While it’ll be a full house, they said they look forward to sharing extra-special time together.

“We’re just gonna hang out, we’re gonna feed together we’re gonna burp together, like we’ll be up talking, crying together, so that’ll be nice, it won’t be as lonely I think,” Madeline said.

“It’ll be nice to have that additional support there and kinda going through the same trenches,” her husband, Nicholas Majors added.

The twins said they think their sons will say they’re brothers when they get older, rather than saying they are cousins.
