A woman has given birth to two sets of identical twins after finding out the odds of the quadruplets were 70-million-to one.
Hannah Carmack, 29, and her husband, Michael, 33, found out they were expecting in September 2022. They were shocked when the sonographer revealed they were having quads at their first scan the next month.
Hannah and Michael then found out that the quads were two sets of twins – at one in 70 million odds. Hannah gave birth at 27 weeks to Evelyn, 2lbs 11oz, David, 2lbs 40z, Daniel 2lbs 4oz, and Adeline 1lbs 10oz, via a planned c-section on March 14, 2023.

The quads were all home in Gadsden, Alabama, USA, 96 days later – and are said to be “thriving” with individual personalities. Hannah, a veterinary technician, said: “It was chaotic when we brought them home for the first time.
“Luckily I flew my step mum out for two and a half months to help me adjust to them. They all slept and ate at the same time. They thrived off each other, if one would scream the other one would scream.

“The first time I saw them all home together I cried, I couldn’t believe it – they were a miracle.” Hannah and Michael were not trying to a baby so when they found out they were expecting it came as a shock.
When the first scan revealed they were having quads, Hannah said she had a “panic attack”. She said: “I saw two placentas on the screen and I asked if they were twins but the sonographer wasn’t saying anything.
“My husband put his hands on his head and started laughing while I was crying. I asked if it was triplets and she still didn’t reply, she put her hand on my knee and said there were four.
“I asked if she was sure and she said how there was definitely four babies there – you go through all the emotions.” From the off set, Hannah was warned us that it would be a miracle to make it to 30 weeks.

At 27 weeks, Hannah was hospitalised at the University of Alabama Hospital and monitored closely. Doctors told her the goal was to get her to 28 weeks as the babies would be safer to deliver.
Hannah said: “One of my boys and one of my girls had the same heart rate for a few hours which was not normal. “The doctor came in and wanted to check if I has dilated and see if one of the babies had slipped into the birth canal.

“She checked me and I was at 4cm, she said I needed a c-section straight away.” Hannah gave birth at 27 weeks at 4:16 to 4:20am to Evelyn, 2lbs 11oz, David, 2lbs 40z, Daniel 2lbs 4oz, and Adeline 1lbs 10oz, via a planned c-section on March 14, 2023.
Hannah said: “I get into the operating room and there was about 40 different people. I had my doctors and each baby had their own team.

“The doctors said that all the babies were doing good and they had been intubated.” Three days after giving birth, Hannah went home and the quads left hospital at different times.
The quads all had a 50 per cent chance of survival – they had odds against them from the beginning

Evelyn left hospital after 69 days, Adeline left after 80 days, David went home after 82 days and David was the last to come home after 96 days. Hannah said: “Oh man, a lot of people prayed over our babies from the very beginning.
“They all had a 50 per cent chance of survival – they had odds against them from the beginning. They are all doing great, Daniel is trying to walk now, they are crawling and eating table food.

“Their personalities are very different. David is mysterious, Evelyn is our adventure baby, Adeline keeps herself to herself and Daniel is on the go all the time.
“They are all super sweet. The boys are obsessed with me and the girls are drifting towards their father.” Hannah is sharing her quads’ childhood on Instagram and TikTok.
