Mom has quadruplets without using fertility, then doctor notices something special

She had no idea how drastically Dr. Lauren Murray would alter both her and her partner’s lives.

Everyone who has seen a sonographer while expecting a baby understands how both anxious and thrilling it can be.

It is really emotional to see anything appear on that black screen and realize it is a living thing. However, it was all of those things and much more for Jenny Marr and her companion Chris.

But when Jenny did become pregnant, Chris and she experienced the shock of their lives at a routine ultrasound. Jenny discovered she wasn’t carrying a single child at that point.

Jenny explained: “I was like, ‘Oh no, there’s no heartbeat.’ And, she’s like, ‘No, there is a heartbeat.’ She goes, ‘Y’all, there’s three babies in there.’ And we were just absolutely floored.”

Naturally astonished, Jenny and her companion Chris discovered more surprises. On November 19, 2019, a week after their initial appointment, they went to see a maternal-fetal medicine specialist for a follow-up visit.

The ultrasound technician gave them the same strange look.

“The tech — who was doing the initial (scan) — she gave me a funny look. We were like, ‘Oh what’s going on now?’ We got worried again,’” Chris explained.

“She was really cute. She said, ‘I’m not supposed to say this, but y’all got four babies.’”

They had gone from expecting one baby to learning they were having FOUR in just seven days.

Chris said: “I made the joke that I am not coming back because there are going to be five babies next time. We were just shocked. Jumping from three to four was easier to swallow. Just after that we heard they were healthy.”

According to Dr. Lauren Murray and her associates, there are between 1 in 11 million and 1 in 15 million births that result in identical, spontaneous quadruplets. incredibly uncommon, to put it simply.

“It’s unbelievable. It’ll never happen again in my career. I said, ‘Girl, go buy a few lottery tickets because those are the kind of odds we’re dealing with,’” Murray said. “What a miracle it was.”

It turned out that the four kids were perfectly prepared to share, despite the possibility that one of them would take nutrition away from the others, necessitating surgery and creating issues.

“The babies shared incredibly well. There were no incidents on the sonogram even leading up to that where we were worried that one of them, or two or three of them, would be significantly smaller,” Murray said.

Jenny had birth at 28.5 weeks on March 15 as a result. Despite her best efforts, she was forced to deliver before 33 weeks. Although the babies were born at the start of the coronavirus mayhem, her C-section went smoothly.

First to arrive was baby Harrison, who weighed 2 pounds, 6 ounces. Following Hudson, who weighed 1 pound 15 ounces, came Hardy, who weighed 2 pounds 10 ounces, followed by Henry, who weighed 2 pounds 6.7 ounces.

“They were all born in three minutes. It’s incredible,” Jenny said. “We called them our baby birds because they really looked like baby birds.”

For a total of 10 weeks, three of the four infants remained in the neonatal intensive care unit to get oxygen, among other things. They did return home, nevertheless, in early May. and Jenny and Chris are overjoyed.

After a year, Jenny spoke with DFW Child and provided an update on her quadruplets’ well-being.

”They’re all crawling. I have two who will be walking in the next month probably, which means the other two aren’t far behind. They’re into everything. They’re dirty and messy. They’re already such little boys! Eating is just shoveling food into their face as fast as they possibly can. They’re funny and just sweet as can be.”

“We just hope that this little story and our boys bring as much joy to everybody as they bring to us,” Jenny explained.

The quadruplets turned three years old today and appeared to be doing well. Anyone may follow the family’s adventure on Instagram thanks to Jenny’s creation of the account.

Jenny, who once worked as a dental assistant, has 140,000 followers and frequently publishes updates and snippets of the Marr family’s busy daily life.

It is only natural that many people have inquiries and are interested in Jenny’s family and birth experience given her unusual birth. Jenny claims that she didn’t receive any medical care or drugs to help her conceive these babies.

Jenny is frequently questioned about how she is handling four boisterous boys.

”I don’t know anything different, and I don’t really have another option! My family had preschools when I was growing up, and 8 weeks was the starting age. I used to sit in with the preschool babies. I was around kids so much that it is like second nature to take care of children,” Jenny says.

”It is what it is. You’ve got to roll with the punches. I remember asking my doctor, “Do I need to go to parenting classes?” She said, “No, you’re going to learn things in the NICU. And there are four of them. Nobody’s going to teach you how to do this.”

People also ponder how Jenny and Chris were able to distinguish between the two boys.

”Well as their parents we just kind of know. We typically see 4 different faces, but their personalities and voices are so different. For someone who’s just met them though: (in birth order) Harrison is the biggest and has the best hair. Hardy has a chipped front tooth and is super slender. Henry has a chubby face and his hair bounces when he runs. Hudson has the smallest head and a freckle on his forehead. Thats about all I can give you in regards to how to tell them apart,” Jenny says.

Four adorable young children are born into the world. What an incredibly fortunate day March 15 was. Chris and Jenny, I’m happy for you both. The memories you’ll make as a family and the love in your home are beyond my imagination.
