Unica, a 28-year-old woman in São Paulo, Brazil, gave birth to quintuplets spontaneously on January 10, although she was born prematurely, but both mother and child are safe, and are still hospitalized. The medical team pointed out that without any medical intervention, the chance of naturally conceiving a quintuplet is only one in 60 million, and the risk of multiple births is high, which is very surprising to be able to meet the newborn so smoothly.
According to foreign media reports, Unica was admitted to the hospital at the end of last year, under medical monitoring and observation, originally expected to choose a day of caesarean section, but finally gave birth naturally when she was 29 weeks pregnant, and more than 20 doctors in the delivery room also witnessed it.
Obstetrician and gynecologist Enoch said that multiple births are easy to give birth prematurely, and there are other related risks, including the mother's diabetes, or the baby's premature death, etc. Fortunately, Yunica and the children are safe.
Originally a 5- and 3-year-old child, Yunica is now a shippo mom overnight; because the birth father of the quintuplets has run away from home, she and her family have launched an online fundraising campaign to raise medical and childcare costs.
