News article-unplanned quadruplets

Did anyone else see the article about the unplanned quadruplets?  The 42 year old woman was expecting triplets that were unplanned.  It turns out there are actually 4 babies.  Can you imagine an unplanned multiples pregnancy?

Re: News article-unplanned quadruplets

  • Omg. I totally didn't catch that the triplets were unplanned because I would say what's one more if you know/are prepared for three. I'd die. I wonder how they really feel about it.

    Me too.  All of this

  • I can't even imagine having two babies. Never mind four. I read that she was 42 so my first thought was IVF but I thought I saw that they were identical. This is what happens when I use my fb feed to get the news.

  • Yes, we are totally playing a game on the BNB about what we would name our ID quads.

    I honestly can't wrap my brain around any of this.

    I have a really uncommon/ semi silly sounding LN, so my tastes run fairly traditional-- Elizabeth, Margaret, Mary and Frances for girls and Robert, Henry, James and Timothy for boys.

    Sorry if I just put everyone to sleep!

  • @jackofthebox I love Wyatt!
    If we do decide to have another child and it is a boy that is the name we chose. I think it will be Wyatt Eli.

    I want the names you would use if last name wasn't an issue!

  • Wow. I can't imagine, I think I'd be in shock for quite awhile. I mean, your entire life would change. Like everything. I think I'd have an identity crisis. If one sleepless munchkin can bring on PPD, I can't imagine what unplanned quads would do to me...
  • @legalbeagle1 those names would be very different--my "guilty pleasure" names are below-- some of them I would consider for a MN should we ever have another bambeen

    Amaryllis, Allegra, Olympia and Esmeralda

    August, Sterling, Hugo and River

  • I really like August for a boy. 
  • I have a friend who had triplets, they are exhausting, not counting the other kids she has as well!Oh, I want to play!

    Boys: Henry, William (Liam), Julian, Colin

    Girls: Lillian, Eleanor, Kate, Lauren

    I am also boring, but if we had another child, we'd definitely go for Julian as the boys name.

  • Yet another reason to be one and done. I would flip my shit if we ended up with surprise twins much less quads. Gives me the shivers.

    I hang around there, I've been on baby name boards since the 90's- no lie. AOL board! We're all on FB now. Names have always been an interest of mine.

    And I'd shit if I had quads.
