Although the twins weren't expected for several weeks, they were delivered early "for medical reasons" so that the babies could be born "in the best conditions," according to obstetrician Dr. Michel Sussmann. The babies' original due date was estimated as August 19th. Both mother and babies are reported to be doing well.
