A married couple from the United States has been caring for five little ones at a time for a year. The news of the birth of five little ones for a husband and wife was startling, but they managed to cope with the excitement.
Now they know what it’s like to heat milk forty times a day, to wash twenty little ones’ suits a day, and what a pile of sixty diapers looks like. But with them, you never get bored.
Today, Kentucky couple Briana and Jordan Driskell are the proud parents of the five-year-olds. However, three years ago a husband and wife were desperately trying to have at least one baby.
A few years ago, Briana was diagnosed with infertility, but the couple didn’t give up on having babies. After the treatment, the woman discovered that she was pregnant, and in a few months not one, but five cubs would appear in their family at once.
” 2 years. 730 days. That’s how long Jordan and I tried to have a baby. But the day has come that we will never forget!
During the first ultrasound, the doctor began to look around, then began to count the cubs. One, two, three… Four… Five We learned that day that we were expecting FIVE little ones!!
They couldn’t turn down the opportunity to have cubs, but they couldn’t imagine how they would raise five at a time. But Briana and Jordan managed to pull themselves together. “We went through prayers, sleepless nights and lots of tears to realize what a blessing this is. »
The cubs were born in May 2017. Three daughters – Zoe, Dakota and Hollin. And two boys – Asher and Gavin. All the cubs were born healthy, but they still had to spend time in the hospital. However, very soon the developed business was already at home.
It was then that the most interesting period in the life of parents began. It turned out that caring for five cubs requires not only time and energy, but also at least forty bottles of milk per day.
“We feed them every thirty minutes because once the last little one is full, we start feeding the first one again. The cycle begins again and it’s a bit like a treadmill. »
For a year, the couple’s kitchen has been austere, like a hospital operating room. If you do not prepare several sets of baby food in advance, the risk of leaving someone hungry or simply forgetting which baby a particular bottle is intended for increases.
No less impressive are the results of Briana and Jordan’s weekly visits to the supermarket. The woman admitted that sixty diapers are spent on her little ones a day, and everyone has to change clothes up to twenty times.
“It’s absolute madness. But we never get bored. »
