Octuplets Born in California!

The world’s second set of Octuplets have been born in California Monday, January 26th.

The Associated Press reports that the mother, unidentified at this point, gave birth to six baby girls and two boys at a Kaiser Permanante hospital in Southern California.

The weights of the babies reportedly range between 1.8 and 3.4 pounds, and doctors say they are all in stable condition.

According to AP, Dr. Karen Maples talked about the babies in a TV interview: “It’s a surprise. Eight newborns are in stable condition and they’re doing quite well.”

Doctors also revealed that the delivery took only about five minutes.
