WACO, Texas (KWTX) - A pair of sisters-in-law who both work at Baylor Scott & White Hillcrest had their nine-month long pregnancy joke come true as both delivered babies on the same day in the same hospital despite having due dates nearly a week apart.
Devon Nye, a pediatric nurse practitioner at Hillcrest, and Kyla Fratus, an occupational therapist, delivered babies on Feb. 1, 2023, at Baylor Scott & White Hillcrest Hospital.
Devon is married to Kyla’s stepbrother, Eric. The sisters had due dates nearly a week apart but joked from the beginning they’d love to deliver cousins the same day.
“What’s funny is we said, ‘how funny if we have them the same day?’ So, from the beginning, it was put out in the universe,” Kyla laughed.
But the closer to delivery they got, sharing a birthday seemed more unlikely.
Kyla had an induction scheduled in the hospital Feb. 1. She made it to the hospital and received a good luck text from Devon who was home waiting on her delivery, which appeared to be days away.
“I was induced at 6 a.m. So around 6:30 she (Devon) messaged me and said ‘good luck today let me know how it goes,” Kyla said.
Less than a half hour later, Devon started having contractions.
“They were coming on really strong and I was like, ‘oh my gosh I’m’ going to join you today’ and she sent me a picture like ‘oh my gosh this is real. It’s happening because we had just talked about it and joked for so long,’” Devon said.
