Quintuplets arrive at Abbott Northwestern

CONGRATULATIONS x5!!!!

congrats x5 too!

Quinto-Mom just doesn't have the same ring to it. Good luck and congratulations.

Congrats from River Falls. We will be praying for those little ones.

Congratulations! Kids are truly special. I wish the babies good health.

There are too many people in this country and too many people in this world. We are long past growing at a sustainable pace. When will the media stop headlining these births and, instead, bravely run some stories that educate us about the problem?

Did I hear you volunteer to excuse yourself from this planet?

Does she have a kennel license yet? Why no mention of fertility drugs--because you know they were used.

"Fed up with bailing out"--just how long do you think this planet could surevive if everyone was popping out kids five at a time? Moron.

Now I am no expert but I do know where to look stuff up and www.worldometers.info is great and almost unbelievable. I agree we have too many already. We should take a two year lay off.

All the best to the family - I hope all the children live happy and healthy lives! p.s. Beautiful names, by the way!

All you negative people just back off! Millions of moms use fertility drugs. No one expects to be in the 1% who give birth to high multiples. That these parents chose to continue the pregnancy and love the gift they were given should not be critised. I know the parents, and I repeat, you should BACK OFF! Direct your ire instead at irresponsible parents who don't take care of their kids, or those who have five kids all with different fathers who they have never been married to. Or better yet, direct your energy as a volunteer for an agency that works with kids who don't have a stable life!

Although I have mixed feelings about fertility treatments I had to laugh at this.

Just a nitpick, fertility treatments are well known to frequently produce multiples if they are successful.

But I agree that this particular couple don't need a lecture about overpopulating the planet.

So you're embracing celibacy for two years?

You're the moron because popping out five kids out at a time is a VERY RARE thing. Just thought I'd tell you that in case you think it's becoming a big trend. God, where do people like you come from?

LOL! I read it again and had to laugh too. With all the problems in the world right now and someone is worrying about a population explosion. God knows it costs tons to raise kids and I wish this family well.
