This family is local so I've been following them for awhile, but just thought I'd share this here as well. I can't even imagine shopping for 5 girls! They have an older daughter as well, so 6 girls total.
-
Ok, the article didn't say gestational age- frustrating.
Secondly- this would be my naming dream! Getting to use 10 girl names!!! So amazing!!!
-
Quite exciting! The cool part is they had a chance to use most (all) of their favorite baby girl names.
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: jinx! Edited to add that they did a fairly good job choosing names.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: They were born at 28 weeks.
-
@lawbee11: hopefully they aren't there for the full 40, but I'm glad she made it to 28.
-
@Mrs. Jacks: I agree. They have a little bit of trendy, unisex, and classic. My fav is the Parker Kate combo.
-
@Mrs. Jacks and @Mrs. Lemon Lime: lol I had the exact same thought about the names! Getting to use that many girl names would make my heart so happy!
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: Parker and Hazel were my two favorites.i would have chosen a Matilda, Francisca, maybe a Phillipa, oh the possibilities are endless! Maybe a Zinnia? I think I'd have leftover names even with five babies!
-
I heard about this on the today show this morning. 6 girls total!
They said they first saw 4 and then 1 split and this article said it was an IUI. Is that common for 4 eggs to be released?
-
@birdofafeather: depends what meds they are using. Clomid definitely raises risk of multiples.
-
@birdofafeather: @Mrs. Jacks: She was on Femara. I read her blog before and she said the ultrasound showed 2 mature follicles and 2 more that weren't fully mature but could become mature, so they knew 2-4 were a possibility.
-
@lawbee11: @Mrs. Jacks: so crazy!!
-
Can we just start a thread, "if you could name girl quints...."
-
@lawbee11: oh shit! Don't tell me that! I have 3 mature follicles!! LOL
-
@travellingbee: I had 3 mature follicles and 2 that were almost and only ended up with a singleton!
-
@travellingbee: You mean you don't want triplets??
-
@lawbee11: um, lemme think.... Hell to the No!!!
@KT326: That is our hope!!! Last time we had one mature and 3 close to mature and got nada. -
@Rainbow Sprinkles: let's do it! It's my dream job!
I started it
-
@lawbee11: I was following her too, especially because "Quint update" would always pop up on my newsfeed and we call our son Quint.
Glad the babies all seem to be doing well! -
Wow, that's a lot of estrogen in one house!
Good names! Hazel Grace is the name of the main character in a Fault in Our Stars. I love Parker for a girl!
-
@Synchronicity: I totally thought of A Fault in our Stars too when I saw Hazel Grace.
@lawbee11: this is amazing! Thanks for posting! I didn't see the news today and so totally missed it!
-
@HTownMom: They have a Facebook page...the babies are so tiny!
-
@lawbee11: watching that video on their blog, it's amazing they even have the presence of mind to do it! Big kudos to the family, love see their pics and hope all the girls continue to grow!
