Lovely children are always an endless source of inspiration and boundless happiness that every parent wants. But at the same time, having to take care of 5 children including an older brother and 4 quadruplets, not everyone can do it well.
In recent years, assisted reproduction methods have caused an increase in multiple pregnancies. According to the US Department of Health &aмp; Human Serʋices, compared to 1980, the chances of a twin pregnancy have increased by 75%, while the chances of a triplet pregnancy have increased even more.
And if raising twins or triplets seems overwhelming, imagine everyday life with quadruplets. Dayna Childress is a mother of quadruplets and, through the Hello Quadruplets Instagram account she created, she shares snapshots of her daily life.
Dayna and her husband also have an older son, and the quadruplets came into their lives after three miscarriages. The young mother calls her five children “miracles†and, in recent years, she has captured the special journey of motherhood with the photos and videos she posts. Her followers on Instagram exceed 389 thousand, and each of her publications accumulates tens of thousands of likes.
In addition to great photos, Dyana shares her experiences and thoughts, and many mothers can relate to her.
Shortly after the quadruplets were born, the young mother posted a photo of her C-section scar and wrote in her post:
“When I first woke up after the C-section, all I kept thinking was how could I not hold them in any longer? How could my Ƅody abandon me like this? It was three important weeks too soon for them to leave. To this day, I still kick myself for getting out of bed that night, thinking that if I hadn’t gotten up at that moment, Simon’s water wouldn’t have broken and he could have done it longer.
But then I think, well, what if I fell asleep and his water still broke and his cord came out, would I have woken up? Would he be eʋen Ƅe aliʋe? Either way, I have it on the back of my neck not knowing if his cord was compressed or for how long, if he lost oxygen, will it affect him functionally? I need to stop having these worries, stop putting my body down and start praising it because it still did something AMAZING. I raised FOUR daughters at once, and they all survived while doing better than expected time and time again. I had so many doctors telling me that they wouldn’t survive, or that if they did, they would have medical disabilities. Well, I took the odds and tried them wrong.
Dyana posts photos of her children from their daily lives and the activities they do during the day. The difficulties are many, but the beautiful moments are equally many.
Today, the quadruplets are three years old. See the photos Dyana has posted over the years in the gallery below.
