'My sister is technically my twin and IVF means we could birth our own siblings'

A woman and her sister who claim they are "technically twins" despite being born three years apart have said they could give birth to their own siblings if they wanted to.

Michel Janse is three years older than her sister JJ, but they were both conceived in 1996 when their parents went through a round of IVF treatment that produced several viable embryos, the Daily Star reports.

And while Michel was implanted first, her parents decided to keep JJ frozen until 2000 - meaning that while they were born separately, they could refer to themselves as twins as they were conceived at the same time.
