Do you know it is Possible For a woman to get Pregnant While Still pregnant?

It is possible for a woman to get pregnant while she is already pregnant.

 

Called “superfetation”, cases of double pregnancy, although rare, are possible, and occur when a woman continues ovulating even after becoming pregnant and the second fertilised egg gets implanted to the uterine wall. However, this is not very common, as hormonal changes prevent a woman from ovulating further, thickening the uterine lining, thus preventing a second embryo attaching itself to the uterine wall.
There have only been 10 recorded cases of this phenomenon thus far.(source)
