TWO sisters had a double cause for celebration as they gave birth to baby girls within one minute of each other in neighbouring rooms at a south coast hospital.
Kerry Johnston, 26, from Three Legged Cross, and Leann Annan, 24, became mums on royal wedding day after their contractions started within 15 minutes of each other.
Leann and husband Wayne, 27, arrived at Poole Hospital’s maternity ward at about 8am, with Kerry and fiance Callum Metcalfe, 29, following at about 9.30am. At 11.53am, Bella Annan was welcomed into the world, weighing 8lb t3ozs. And at 11.54am out popped Jessica Metcalfe, just two ounces heavier.
