Parents celebrate birthday double

A deja-vu Chesterfield mum has given birth to a baby girl at the same minute, hour and date as her first-born five years before.

Pregnant Debs Frazer (37) was celebrating daughter Pippa’s fifth birthday when her contractions began and she went to Chesterfield Royal Hospital’s maternity unit.



But, after joking Pippa might get a brother or sister for her birthday, she couldn’t believe it when the latest family member was born at the same hour, minute and on the same date as her first daughter five years before.

Former teacher Mrs Frazer and husband Tony (47) told how their latest family member was born six days early, at 11.18pm, on February 27, weighing 8lb and one-and-half ounces.
