 Ananova:
Couple's quads shock

A Derbyshire woman found out she was expecting quadruplets - four days before her boyfriend was due for the snip.

Daniel Morley, 32, had booked in for a vasectomy as he and Dawn Tilt, 31, already had three children, reports the Daily Mirror.

They discovered she was pregnant four days before the op but had no idea they would be having quads until her 12 week scan.

Daniel, a steelworker, said: "It was a bombshell. I was happy and dumbfounded in equal measure. I was just speechless."

Dawn, of Castle Gresley, added: "It was such a shock. I was lying on the table and just burst into tears."

The childhood sweethearts were not on any fertility drugs, meaning they have defied 729,000-1 odds to have quads.

The babies, all healthy, are due to be delivered by caesarean section in March, nine weeks before their due date.

Now the excited parents are already thinking about the practicalities of life with seven kids.

Dawn asked: "How on earth do you manage a school run? I'm going to have five children under two, for goodness sake."

All she needed was a quadbortion.

I would kill myself.  Twice.  Just to make sure.

The more the merrier. But thats a little much.

We plan on 3 at least. But we don't plan on even having the first one for another 2 years or so. I'm going to have all girls...

Are they white? They will fetch more in the slave market.

OK that was inappropriate.

geez, i never expected to read so many mean selfish remarks on here.

It's tough but... if I were in their shoes, i'd much rather try to raise the kids than go through hell knowing i aborted the babies and made the decision to take their chance from living their life out.

But honestly, the world is in such a screwed up state, that I wouldn't want to bring a child here.

Yes, I will only bring children into the world AFTER I build my underwater metropolis! Wait, that's not very original!

Well, now I'm glad I didn't make that post about how I would eat them..

But yeah, 4 babies....that's tough. Hopefully they are well off. This will be an expensive few years for them.

Few years?  I guess if you're a big sea turtle, 18 years is a few.

Well, in my family you have to pay your way at age 3. It's different everywhere else?

Don't act like you aren't saying the same stuff when she's not around. Don't make me dig up the "babies for food" discussion we had on IRC the other day.

Well, we are horrible.  There's really no denying that.  I don't even bother to hide it.  I've come to terms with my chronic horribleness and have more or less stopped trying to fight it.

Aww.  It's one big ring of cuddly horribleness.
