Cleveland Clinic called that kind of situation superfetation, which it described as:

"...an extremely rare event that involves getting pregnant while you're already pregnant. Your body goes through changes that make it nearly impossible for you to become pregnant while a fertilized egg (embryo) is already growing inside your uterus."

Some people in her comment section argued that the babies are Irish twins. However, according to Healthline, Irish twins term:

"refers to one mother having two children who were born 12 months or less apart. It originated in the 1800s as a way to poke fun at Irish Catholic immigrant families who didn't have access to birth control."
