00:00 It's hard to imagine a baby who's only one.
00:03 But this is Mami Hanna.
00:05 Not just one, not two, not three,
00:08 but she's given birth four times
00:11 because of her cute, cute quadruplets.
00:15 Mami Hanna's story is true
00:17 and her four angels are in this report.
00:20 When it rains, it's four.
00:27 She's also proving that this is true for Hanna.
00:31 She's given birth to not one, not two, not three,
00:36 but four babies.
00:38 Hanna will never forget
00:47 when she gave birth to Yana, Yash, Yanni, and Yen
00:51 and her quadruplets.
00:54 I was scared before because they were so small.
00:57 Now, I see them improving.
00:59 They're gaining weight.
01:01 It's not easy for Hanna to give birth.
01:05 When they were five months old,
01:07 I had a hard time breathing.
01:09 I was already weak.
01:11 They were so many.
01:13 I was getting tired of eating.
01:15 I was getting heavier.
01:17 I was starting to gain weight.
01:19 I was getting thinner.
01:21 I wasn't losing weight, but my body was.
01:24 So you can feel that not one is giving birth.
01:28 Yes, because it's different.
01:30 Some are moving on the right, some on the left.
01:33 When one moves, all of them move.
01:35 Mami Hanna, how many months did you know
01:38 that your quadruplets were giving birth?
01:40 I'm not sure how many months,
01:42 but I think it was three months.
01:45 Although it's hard for her to give birth,
01:48 her partner is always there for her,
01:51 especially when it's her first time.
01:53 I was surprised.
01:54 I was at work when they took me there.
01:57 I was surprised by Mami's approach.
01:59 She said, "Oh, Francis, are you ready?"
02:01 I was surprised.
02:02 I thought it was a problem.
02:04 When I got home,
02:06 she helped me take care of the baby.
02:08 She gave me a break.
02:09 I woke up early.
02:11 Hanna was only eight months old
02:14 when she felt the pain of giving birth.
02:17 Because she was carrying quadruplets,
02:19 she immediately went to the emergency room.
02:21 Because the twins were not given enough water,
02:28 they were not discharged from the hospital at the same time.
02:31 No, because the first one was a girl,
02:35 and the second one was a boy.
02:36 One week after, it was Yash.
02:39 Yash was discharged.
02:41 I thought they were already together.
02:45 Because we were told that when we update,
02:47 they are stable.
02:49 Hanna said that the twins were in their family.
02:54 My grandfather's side, my grandmother's side,
02:56 my grandmother's brother has twins.
02:59 Then my grandfather has a living triplet.
03:03 Then my aunt has twins.
03:05 Then this is my quadruplet.
03:07 The quadruplets have been born for a month.
03:10 But Baby Yana is in the neonatal intensive care unit
03:14 or NICU for a strong recovery.
03:16 The twins are small.
03:19 They are really small.
03:21 But they don't have any other complications.
03:23 They are just incubated.
03:26 It is challenging to take care of quadruplets.
03:31 From bathing,
03:39 to breastfeeding,
03:40 to breastfeeding,
03:53 she is able to take care of her partner, Francis,
03:57 her mother,
04:01 and if they can't combine their powers,
04:06 she will call a cousin.
04:08 When they are together, they cry.
04:11 At the age of one month,
04:17 there is a trait that Hanna notices.
04:20 Yen, her only child, is just a bachelor.
04:24 It is fun to take care of the babies.
04:27 It goes back to my memories.
04:29 When my daughter was still small.
04:31 But when she cries like this,
04:34 it is really scary.
04:36 I can't imagine when the four of them are together.
04:39 I am so scared.
04:41 This is not the first time Hanna has a baby.
04:45 Before she had quadruplets,
04:48 she already had three single delivery babies.
04:52 How do you feel?
04:54 Is there a difference?
04:55 In a single delivery, you can move around well.
04:57 Your tummy is not that big.
04:59 You can do all the routines well.
05:03 But when you have four, it is really hard.
05:06 You want to sleep more.
05:08 You want to sleep.
05:09 According to studies,
05:11 one in 571,787 quadruplets
05:15 have a chance of giving birth.
05:18 When a woman fertilizes,
05:22 the sperm and egg cell
05:24 usually, if it is a single-ton,
05:26 it will only form one.
05:27 When it fertilizes, it will give birth.
05:29 When the fertilized egg divides,
05:33 it can have twins.
05:35 When it further subdivides,
05:37 it will have triplets.
05:38 And when it divides three times,
05:40 it becomes quadruplets.
05:42 So quadruplets will give birth in her pregnancy.
05:45 In 1956,
05:47 the first all-boys quadruplets were born in the Philippines.
05:51 They are the Salles quadruplets of Marinduque.
05:54 They are Bienvenido, Bernardo, Bernabe, and Benjamin.
05:59 But in 2010,
06:01 Bienvenido gave birth at the age of 54.
06:05 Unlike the usual fertilization,
06:08 quadruplets are more likely to give birth.
06:12 It is also more likely
06:14 that the mother and the baby will have complications.
06:17 If your matress is overstretched,
06:19 it is hard to carry.
06:21 So there is a higher tendency for preterm labor.
06:25 You will give birth early.
06:26 You are not in the month.
06:27 You may have many complications.
06:30 High blood pressure,
06:31 higher risk of diabetes,
06:34 and various medical complications.
06:37 In the case of Hanna's quadruplets,
06:39 it is not done with the nutrition of these.
06:42 In her case,
06:43 in our patient,
06:45 they will have partitioned fetuses.
06:49 They call it monochorionic,
06:52 quad amnionic,
06:53 what happens in this fetus.
06:55 Because there is a prenatal placenta.
06:59 Usually, it is only one if it is a singleton.
07:02 In this case,
07:03 there is one placenta,
07:05 and there are four fetuses,
07:07 four divisions.
07:09 So it's like they didn't separate.
07:11 Hanna is more fortunate
07:14 because her fetuses are safe.
07:16 Not all quadruplets can survive.
07:22 Not Kera May, Kate Louise, Kylie Jane, and Kendra Claire
07:25 gave birth to their first quadruplets
07:27 only 16 years ago in 2022.
07:31 But because the quadruplets
07:34 only gave birth for 6 months,
07:36 two of them gave birth due to complications.
07:40 I was very sad.
07:41 When the babies were born,
07:43 they were sent to the incubator
07:45 because they were small.
07:48 They were less than 1 kilo,
07:50 around 600 grams.
07:53 After 2 weeks,
07:55 the first one died.
07:56 And after 3 weeks,
07:58 the fourth one died.
08:01 It was painful
08:02 because I didn't see or touch them.
08:06 Kylie Jane and Kendra Claire
08:08 have been in the care of their family
08:10 for more than a year.
08:12 But until now,
08:14 they have not been able to walk.
08:16 They are still under medication
08:18 for heart and asthma.
08:21 Novel also continued her studies.
08:24 She stopped when she was pregnant.
08:27 Now, I'm in grade 12.
08:29 I'm about to finish high school.
08:32 I will study for my children.
08:35 Novel admitted that they need financial help
08:39 to pay for their medical bills.
08:41 And until now,
08:42 they are still in debt at the hospital.
08:45 The Department of Health said
08:47 they can provide financial assistance
08:49 to the quadruplets.
08:51 Meanwhile,
08:54 the quadruplets are still being observed
08:56 by Hana,
08:57 who is now 1.3 kilos heavier.
09:00 The hospital plans to give her
09:02 1.5 kilos of baby weight
09:04 before she is sent home.
09:06 For now,
09:07 Hana is only 1.3 kilos.
09:10 How does it feel
09:12 to have quadruplets
09:14 but you only see 3 of them?
09:16 It's very sad.
09:19 I want them to be complete.
09:21 I want them to be complete.
09:24 Like Hana,
09:25 she was left behind.
09:26 In the case of quadruplets,
09:28 the most important thing for them
09:30 at this stage
09:31 is to be given breast milk.
09:33 Breastfeeding is the best way
09:36 to avoid getting sick.
09:38 We have support
09:40 through our human milk banks.
09:42 We also have a malnourished child program
09:45 and a medical assistance program
09:48 for indigent patients.
09:50 In every quadruplet,
09:52 a mother's foot is placed in the womb.
09:56 But all the worries are resolved
09:58 when the child is seen.
10:00 Especially if it is a quadruplet with four healthy babies.
10:05 Happiness is not just four times,
10:08 but it is infinite.
