Twin Sisters Give Birth to Daughters 90 Minutes Apart on Their Birthday

Amber Tramontana and Autum Shaw, they’re still in disbelief after giving birth to daughters within 90 minutes of each other on Oct. 29 — their 33rd birthday.

“This is our testimony,” says Autum, mom to newborn Charleston. “You couldn’t have planned this… God made our story very, very special, and all the little details came together for a big, beautiful picture, and I’m so thankful for that.”

Adds Amber, mom of baby Blakely: “Pregnancy and childbirth is such a stressful and trying time. It’s beautiful, but it’s a hard stage of life, and it’s been really a huge blessing to have Autum every step of the way… we’ve had that our whole lives, so this is just one more thing to add to the list.”

After growing up side by side in Tennessee, Amber and Autum remained inseparable as they earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Carson Newman University. They even became registered nurses and then nurse practitioners together.

One rare difference: Amber, who is based in Knoxville, chose to work in the maternity and oncology units, while Autum, of Morristown, worked on the trauma floor and went on to practice orthopedic nursing.

“The specialties that we chose kind of match our personalities too,” Amber says.

In 2018, the twins’ fate aligned yet again when both discovered they were pregnant with their first children. Both were boys.

Though the boys, Briggs Tramontana and Maverick Shaw, were born 10 weeks apart, they were the same length and weight.

The twins soon learned that they shared the same due date, which fell on their birthday. They both attribute it to divine intervention.
