Healthy quadruplets in Erlangen: a rare miracle of birth!

Erlangen, Deutschland - In the University Hospital Erlangen, a medical miracle recently occurred: Healthy quadruples saw the light of day! According to br , the four children, two girls and two boys, were born by Caesarean section two months before the calculated date of birth. The parents are overjoyed and can move home with their newborns, all of whom are healthy after a short time in the clinic in Lauf on the Pegnitz.

The birth was uncomplicated and only lasted a few minutes. A well -coordinated team of four neonatologists ensured optimal primary care for the premature babies, which had a birth weight between 1,130 and 1,300 grams. This four -back weakened family describes the past few weeks as "so much life in our apartment". It is also astonishing that the four siblings have now more than doubled their birth weight.

The challenge of four -fashioned births

In the background of the birth there was excellent medical care by Prof. Dr. Holm Schneider and prenatal diagnostician Prof. Dr. Florian Faschingbauer, who supported the family from the 10th week of pregnancy. Vierlage births represent a major logistical challenge for the medical staff. According to , such births are very rare, and most ends early due to complications. At birth, all four children have to be looked after at the same time intensive care, which also increases the need for recording capacities for neonatology.

Another example of the rarity of these completed events is evident in Vechta in Lower Saxony, where four other children, Anais Rebeca, Eric Gabriel, Patrick Mathias and David Cristian, recently saw the light of day. This also happened by Caesarean section, with the doctors being prepared for a triplet birth. The four healthy newborns weigh between 1,120 and 1,480 grams and are well looked after in St. Marienhospital, which specializes in neonatology, such as NDR reported.

The fact that four -ways are born only once a year are illustrated by the uniqueness of this situation. While the majority of quadruple pregnancies are much more difficult due to health risks, the parents in Erlangen and Vechta were able to count on a strong network of specialists and nursing staff who took care of the newborns.

The new parents in Erlangen express their gratitude to the medical staff, which made this extraordinary journey possible from pregnancy to birth. With a fresh wind into your apartment, no eye stays dry! So much life - what an enrichment for every family.
