Lexi and her mom have become best friends since going through their pregnancies together. The pair even attended appointments side by side and were able to compare the symptoms. "My mom had a C-section and I ended up having to have one too so it was nice having someone that could help me recover and know what I was going through," said Lexi.

Brigitte, from Rocky Ford, Georgia, already has three adult children. But after she found love again since being divorced, she decided it was time to grow the family even more. Her new partner had no children of his own, so she wanted to give him the opportunity to experience being a father.

She gave birth to her twin sons, Banks, and Briar, in February 2019.
