‘One-in-a-Million’ Twins: One Born With Down Syndrome, and the Other Without

Meet the adorable one-in-a-million twins—one born with Down syndrome and the other without.

Proud parents Nicola and Todd Bailey didn’t find out that their daughter Harper had the genetic disorder until she was born 38 minutes before her twin sister, Quinn.

The parents claimed that doctors said “sorry” when they broke the news, but they didn’t think the condition was anything to apologize for.

They insisted that both their girls are “perfect” and they wouldn’t change either of them “for the world.”

Nurse Nicola, then 32, from Sheffield, South Yorkshire, is on a mission to educate people about the genetic condition and reduce the stigma.
She said in July 2018: “Harper is Harper and Quinn is Quinn—they are not the same so I try not to compare them, however hard that may be.”

“I don’t see Harper as any different to my other children and would not change her for the world.

“You do see people staring at her and it’s hard at times as the perception of Down’s syndrome can be so negative.”
