Parents of surprise quadruplets taking it “one day at a time”
It’s all been rather overwhelming when you think about how many changes will have to be made…. But I am just trying to take everything one day at a time.
I know it will all work out.

First of all, congratulations to Kimberly Fugate! Second of all, how could they not know they were quadruplets? I am, ultrasounds are a fairly routine thing these days. Could the doctor not count or something?

I’ve actually heard of that happening before with higher order multiples. Maybe one baby was hiding behind the others and couldn’t be seen on ultrasound? Is that possible?

I hope she’s doing well. I can’t imagine taking care of four infants at once.

It just goes to show you that doctors and sonograms are not infallible.

I always wanted to have identical twins or triplets, but you can’t order them up like you do a pizza!

Thanks phillymiss, I split my sides laughing when I first saw it. Probably ‘cos I’m a cat person.
