AHMADABAD, India -- A 43-year-old woman in western India gave birth to her own grandchildren after she acted as the surrogate mother for her daughter's twin children, doctors said Friday.

The names of the woman and her daughter were being withheld at the family's request, said Dr. Nayana Patel, the fertility expert who treated the women.

The births happened nearly two weeks ago in Anand, a town 60 miles south of Ahmadabad, the commercial capital of western Gujarat state, she said.

The daughter suffers from a rare medical condition that left her unable to bear a child.
