Australian mother delivers identical quadruplet girls at Brisbane hospital
A 34-year-old Australian mother delivered four identical girls at Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in Queensland. Newser reported that the babies were born prematurely at 28 weeks. The New York Times noted the pregnancy was naturally conceived. ABC7 Los Angeles highlighted the rarity, estimating the odds at about one in 15 million pregnancies.
CBS News identified the mother as Jenitar Na'amoana and confirmed the location and gestational age. AP News echoed the doctors’ estimate of a one-in-15-million chance. A later Newser piece reiterated the rarity and said the newborns were being cared for at the hospital.
