Mexican Mom Gives Birth To Quintuplets Naturally

Here’s something you don’t hear very often. A 32 year old Mexico City mom has given birth to quintuplets the good old fashioned way – not with the assistance of fertility medications.

The Mexico City public hospital says the three boys and two girls, each born about one minute apart, are in stable conditions and doing well.

It says the mother had two earlier miscarriages and one prior Caesarean section.

Medical experts estimate the chance of having identical quintuplets without fertility treatment is about one in 55 million.

No information was given on gestation or weight.

We wish them the best, these parents have a lot of sleepless night ahead of them.
