The baby that was born in North India with two faces suffers with the rare illness called craniofacial duplication, according to doctors the child is doing well. The baby named Lali is now 1-month old and has been worshipped as some sort of reincarnation of a Hindu goddess.

Baby Lali has two faces which means that she has two pairs of eyes, two pairs of lips and also two noses. When it comes to feeding the parents use both mouths. Lali also opens and shuts her four eyes all at the same time.

According to doctors, Lali is suffering from the rare illness called craniofacial duplication, this means that a single head will have two faces.

    Amazing. I hope she grows up healthy. It would be interesting to hear her talk from two mouths. I don’t think this is all pollution related. people have been born like this way before the industrial era.

    well this is truly of God, only he knows and only He alone can explain all of this. However i hope that Lali will have a normal life and people will treat her as other normal kids. She is really a blesssing to be born in a world like this. I strongly believe that is to let you all know that God os in control and he can do the things that seem impossible to us.
