Quintuplets – still newsworthy, but no longer rare

Since I’ve begun writing Womb Within, I’ve posted a few times about multiple births larger than 4 babies – it’s really not such a rarity it seems. But, it’s still newsworthy.

A pair of first-time parents have joined the super-multiple club as they welcomed their quintuplets (4 girls, 1 boy) on December 27. That’s one heck of a Christmas present! Born at Staten Island University Hopsital in New York, were said to have been named Allesia Louise, Amanda Frances, Ella Lilliana, Emily Ann and Matthew Sabatino, according to news reports.
