The world’s only nonuplets – nine babies 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 at the same time
The world’s only nonuplets (nine babies 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 at the same time) have safely returned home to Mali after spending the first 19 months of their lives in Morocco. The infants broke the Guinness World Record for the most 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren delivered in a single 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 to survive.
Their mother Halima Cissé (27) had been flown from their hometown to Morocco specialist care.
For the last year they had been living with medical support in Casablanca.
According to a BBC report, the nonuplets consisting of five girls and four boys were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 by Caesarean section at 30 weeks.
The names of the girls are Kadidia, Fatouma, Hawa, Adama and Oumou and the boys are named Mohammed VI, Oumar, Elhadji and Bah. Upon their 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 they weighed between 500g and 1kg (1.1lb and 2.2lb) Prof Youssef Alaoui, medical director of the clinic where they were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, told the AFP news agency.
Since there were many risks that could have caused serious health problems due to their premature 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 they spent the first months of their lives in hospital. Post this they moved to an apartment where they received round-the-clock care from the Ain Borja clinic.
Notably, during their first 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day earlier this year their father Abdelkader Arby said that each one has a unique personality. “They all have different characters. Some are quiet, while other make more noise and cry a lot.
Some want to be picked up all the time. They are all very different, which is entirely normal.” Arby also said that they had become famous in Mali and people were “very keen to see the babies with their own eyes”, reported BBC.
