The residents of the small village where the baby was born have begun gathering to worship the child, seen as an incarnation of God.

The girl was born in Gautam Budh Nagar in the suburbs of Delhi.

She was born to Vinod Singh and Sushma at Saifai Hospital in Dadr, India.

"Both mother and the child are healthy and doing fine," Dr Aas Mohammad, of Saifai Hospital, told IBNLive.com.

I'm not ashamed to say that just creeps me the fuck out.

I think this is one of those extreme cases of Siamese twinning. Only the separation stopped at a MUCH earlier stage. Sad....

Will both sides of the face be able to speak? Is there one brain? Which mouth gets to eat? Wow that's weird and sad :( I wish the baby the best in health and life!

I can't imagine if it had 8 arms too.

I was wondering the same thing, about how much function each face has if any, mostly about the eyes, I wonder if she can see properly.

My guess is only one of the faces would be functional, one cant really tell from the video as shes sleeping at all times.

I found this (http://www.topnews.in/villagers-worship-child-having-two-faces-and-four-eyes-225265) other article, has a little more info on it but they misquoted the witness as saying it was a two headed baby and use some old two headed baby picture....

My primary concern about functionality would be: can she eat and swallow properly? The way the faces are positioned, I wonder if she even has one fully formed lower jawbone, let alone two. And what of her esophagus? Can food enter the digestive tract from either mouth? And if so, then what is to keep her from choking?

On the up side though, if both mouths worked, the mother could nurse her on both breasts at the same time, and cut feeding times in half!

But seriously, I hope the child is able to eat and process her food normally. She's gonna need every advantage she can get, considering all of the medical procedures she is facing in her future.
