Scotland -- A mother has defied odds of 500,000 to one by giving birth to her third set of twins - baby girls Rowan and Isla.
Karen Rodger, 41, and husband Colin, 44, from Langbank in Renfrewshire were "over the moon" at the new arrivals to their family on May 29 at the Southern General Hospital in Glasgow.
The girls, who are not identical, were delivered by caesarean section with Rowan arriving first, and two minutes later Isla.

The couple already have four boys - 14-year-olds Lewis and Kyle, and Finn and Jude who are both 12 - and were told of the unlikely odds that Mrs Rodger's third pregnancy would be twins.
The happy mother says: "I just could not believe it. It never crossed my mind that it would be twins again, I just thought that just doesn't happen to people like me, but I'm absolutely delighted."
Mrs Rodger found out during a scan six weeks into the pregnancy and sent a text with the news to her husband.
