Premature quadruplets home for Christmas

Ten-week premature quadruplets have been reunited at home in time for Christmas. Ginger, Brodie, Trixie and Keiko were born by Caesarean section to Kirsty and Richard Jackson Fuller.

Kirsty said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 no different to having one baby born prematurely 鈥 when a difficult situation like this arises, you just have to get on with it. It鈥檚 what any mum would do.鈥

Weighing between 2lb 1oz and 2lb 12oz at birth, all four girls had illnesses, with one becoming so poorly her parents were warned to prepare for the worst. Now three months-old, the last two have been given the all-clear from Birmingham Women's Hospital.

鈥淲e prepared for the worst from early on, so everything that happened never really seemed as bad 鈥 and luckily the worst never really came,鈥 said Kirsty.
