Mother, 28, reveals how she gave 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 to quadruplets after three miscarriages

A mother who suffered three miscarriages became pregnant with quadruplets just as she was about to give up on having more 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.

Dayna Childress, 28, became pregnant with her first 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 Lincoln in 2015 after less than a month of trying.

When Lincoln was nine months old, Mrs Childress and her husband Colby, 27, decided to try and expand their family.

Seven months later, Mrs Childress discovered she was pregnant, but miscarried at six weeks.

Mrs Childress, of Springboro, Ohio, became pregnant twice more, with both ending in a miscarriage.

Desperate, the stay-at-home mother was prescribed fertility drugs, which she took for another year before she conceived again.

At five weeks, an ultrasound revealed the couple were expecting quadruplets. Otto, Willow, Simon and Willis were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 on June 29 after 28 weeks and six days.

An ultrasound scan revealed four gestational sacs, however, only two beating hearts were detected. This initially led Mrs Childress to suspect she was pregnant with twins

‘Colby and I started trying in 2015 and got pregnant immediately,’ Mrs Childress said. ‘The pregnancy was uneventful and very healthy.’

After Lincoln was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, she spent seven months trying to conceive again before a pregnancy test came back positive.

‘We decided to try [to get pregnant] again so they could be close in age,’ Mrs Childress said.

She became concerned when the nausea she endured during her first and second pregnancy abruptly stopped at week five.

‘Water was the main thing that caused me to get nauseous in that pregnancy and with my son, so I noticed the minute it went away and drank lots of water to try to get the nausea back,’ Mrs Childress said.

‘A week after the nausea stopped, tests confirmed I had miscarried. I was devastated and couldn’t accept it.’

Despite her heartbreak at losing her 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦, Mrs Childress became pregnant soon after. However, she miscarried again at four weeks.

Worried she would never have any more 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, she saw four gynaecologists to try and detect any fertility problems.

‘They all responded differently, with the first one telling me to wait three months, then the next said that was pointless and tested my hormone levels which all came back normal,’ Mrs Childress said.

A specialist later diagnosed Mrs Childress with unexplained recurrent miscarriages.

‘I saw a specialist who redid my blood work and everything was fine,’ she said.

‘I was happy there were no issues found but also stressed because if they couldn’t find anything wrong, how could they help the problem before I miscarried again?’

It is unclear what health complications the quadruplets suffered, however, Mrs Childress captured this picture ‘so much was attached to them’ when she posted it on Instagram

Otto suffered breathing problems and had to stay in an ‘enclosed bed’ to stay warm (seen left). The youngster, who was the last 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 to be 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, is pictured right bonding with his mother
