Mom, daughter have babies minutes apart

MANSFIELD (AP) -- Technically, a pair of newborns are uncle and nephew, but one of their moms said they may feel more like brothers after their births were just minutes apart.
Theresa Crouse, 39, gave birth to a son at MedCentral/Mansfield Hospital at 11:20 a.m. Monday.
At 11:27, her daughter, Carrie Gresh, had her own baby boy, not only at the same hospital but also delivered by the same doctor.
Gresh, 21, said the two women suffered through morning sickness together and thought their babies would arrive hours apart.
Crouse said she went into induced labor because of a medical condition and her daughter's labor was induced at the same time.
The grandmother who's also a new mother called her little Caleb Izus Crouse a miracle.
"I had been wanting to have a second child for more than 20 years," Crouse said. "I was told I wouldn't be able to have any more children."
Gresh, who was formerly an only child, said it's going to be interesting watching Caleb and her boy, Landin, grow up and go to school together. The extended family currently lives in the same duplex.
"I think this will be great," Crouse said. "They'll grow up like brothers."
