Quintuplets : Real -Time Health News 'Oh So Cute'


With  the help of 23 industrious doctors and two operating rooms, a Houston woman became the mother of quintuplets this past weekend. It took 23 doctors , 8 delivery rooms  and 21 hours to get the quintuplets into the world.
Thirty-year-old Veronica Mayorga-Real delievered the three girls and two boys by Casarean section Saturday at  Children's Memorial Hermann Hosiptal in Houston. The babies weighed between 2 pounds 14 ounces and nearly 4 pounds.  Dr. Ursula Nawab said the babies required no support beyond oxygen, and two are already breathing on their own.The infants were born at 29 weeks, which is 11 weeks premature , and will have to stay in the hosipyal for at least another six weeks.
Mayorga-Real and her husband were using fertility drugs, but did not do artificial inseminations, the Houston Chronicle reported.The couple already have an 8-year-old son and had been trying for five years to conceive another child.
One of the most serious complications of pregnancies involving multiple births is premature labor  and delivery, according to the American Congress of Gynecologists. A
Babies that are premature can have an increased risk of infection, developmental disabilities, neurologic , motor  and learning disabilities. There is an increased rick of cerebral palsy with prematurity, said Laura Corio. But multiple births can also be hard on the mother,  a New York City based obstetrician-gyneoclogist.
Doctors recommended  Mayorga-Real remove three of the embryos to improve the chances of the others , but she said no. "Any reduction would have to be done by God,"she told the Chronicle.
"Mothers with multiple pregnancies can suffer, from postpartum, depression and psychiaric disorders at a higher incidence," Corio said. Breast feeding can be difficult because of the immaturity of the babies sucking response....The parents need a lot of support  throughout  the pregnancy and postpartum .
My spin : Oh but what a joy,
Kicking back having fun and keeping it real as possible in this heat...

  33. I don't think anyone liked Betts.
    She will have to set her sights a bit lower. Boy she reminds me so much of A's wife. Everyone in the family strongly disliked her too, but somehow she didn't get it.

    ReplyDelete
  34. It's probably much better for Nan and James to be a little separate and have more privacy.
    And it's surely better for Mae to have a room on the main floor and be close to Sis.The situation sounds very nice all around, but if Leon is alone in that house he might want his mom there. It might not be a good idea, in case he brings home another lady and you have the same situaton all over again.
