A woman gave birth to twins with different biological fathers in November last year in Australia, in a rare case that combines a natural pregnancy with in vitro fertilization treatment for surrogacy. The phenomenon, known as superfetation, occurred when the woman became pregnant naturally while already carrying an embryo conceived through IVF. The case, considered unprecedented in Australia, forced the Queensland Children's Court to interpret legislation that did not foresee this situation, raising complex legal questions about parentage and registration of the newborns.
