Local mom gave birth to quads - looks like two sets of twins
Our local paper just carried a story about a couple who just gave birth to
quads. Mom had in vitro but they ONLY transplanted two eggs, so the theory is both eggs split, of course there are two boys and two girls. All their weights were 4 pounds and over.\ Shirley
