Woman Who Birthed Quadruplets After 13 Children, Ready To Leave Hospital

Annegret Raunigk, 65 Year old German grandmother, who gave birth to quadruplets about 3 months ago has been given the green light to leave hospital by the end of the month with her minis.

They are the babies that propelled their mother into the history books making her the oldest woman to ever do so and earned her the scorn of millions, as reported by Daily Mail, UK.

According to the head of the Neonatology Department at Berlin’s Charite Hospital in Germany, Annegret and her four babies are now strong enough to face the outside world.

Doctors and the rest of the world were extremely concerned at the time that the very premature babies would not survive, with tiny baby girl Neeta weighing just 1lb 7oz when she was born.

Neeta’s three brothers were almost as small – with Bence weighing 1lb 8oz, Fjonn 1lb 10oz and Dries 2lb 2oz – and the severely underweight babies had to be kept in incubators for the first week of their lives.

Experts warned that even if they did pull through, they could suffer lifelong health problems including lung, intestinal, eye and brain complaints.

But Professor Christoph Buhrer has confirmed: "All have developed well, they have grown wonderfully in a short time. The children were born through Caesarian section but all four are now as strong and as heavy as it they had been born naturally."

A few days ago, Neeta, Bence, Fjonn and Dries – now weighing 5lb 11oz, 5lb 12oz, 5lb 13oz and 6lb 3oz respectively – were examined and deemed fit enough to leave the hospital soon.

Professor Buhrer added: "Now they are ordinary children who want to go home to be looked after by their mother."

The children spent months in delicate health, connected to breathing tubes in incubators.

Annegret is now a mother of 17 children, with the oldest being 44, and a grandmother of seven.

She has always ignored the moral earthquake she has triggered, the gasps of horror from those who say she is selfish, mad or both.

And speaking on the moral earthquake she triggered especially at the time of conception and the birth of her quadruplets, she said:

 "Everyone are suppose to live as they want to but it seems, everyone has something to say about this," she said,

"This is not about egotism and it is not selfishness. I like children – they keep me young. You get more tolerant the older you get.

"I would never dream of telling anyone to do this or that. I am looked after, consulted, observed. I am fit and I am ready to have these babies and to care for them."

Married just once, and the matriarch of a clan of 17 created through five different fathers – not including the donated sperm – she said she doesn’t think much of men and says "there aren’t many who would fit the bill" in helping to raise the new additions.

"My experience with men was that I never found the right one," she said.
