FARRAH and Peyton tried for one baby girl and got FOUR. The couple already had their two-year-old son, Peyton Jr. and were in for quite a surprise when they found out they were having quadruplets. The couple conceived their eight-week-old daughters Lyric, Paisley, Psalm and Fallyn naturally, which is extremely rare with doctors estimating the odds to be approximately one in 700,000 births. The couple were floored when they went in for an ultrasound scan and they were informed Farrah was carrying four babies. Peyton said: “It felt like somebody punched me in the stomach and then stomped me out.” Farrah said: ”He was grabbing the wall like, ‘is there some water somewhere?!’ I was like ‘oh my goodness’.’” Farrah and Peyton said their friends and family thought they were ‘playing’ when they told them they were expecting quads. Farrah’s mom, Sue said: “My initial reaction was ‘oh my God.’ Then I went into action. I'm like ‘what do we do?’, ‘how do we plan for four babies?’”. The family shared their happy news on social media and were met with a lot of positivity but people also accused them of lying about not having IVF treatments. Farrah said: “I’m like, I take vitamin C - this is nothing that we did… I would not purposely have four kids.” Describing their life as ‘happy chaos’, when asked if they would like any more kids, the couple replied with a firm ‘no.’

00:00We tried for a girl and got four girls.
00:03I'm like, what? Quadruplets?
00:05I'm like, wow, this is so amazing.
00:08He was grabbing the wall like, is there some water somewhere?
00:11I'm like, oh my goodness.
00:15People say we're lying about IVF treatments.
00:18How do you feel about these two sharing their life on social media?
00:24You want to hold this?
00:26Come on, hold your hands up.
00:28I'm Peyton.
00:29I'm Farrah, mom of five, five under three.
00:33Can I have some?
00:35No.
00:36Please.
00:37First baby is PJ, Peyton Jr.
00:40He's two years old. He's everything.
00:42That's our baby boy.
00:44He was in for a surprise with these four sisters arriving.
00:48The quadruplets are eight weeks, eight weeks old.
00:51We had Lyric. Lyric was number one.
00:54And then Paisley.
00:56She was number two.
00:59She was third.
01:01This is Fallon.
01:03Fallon was last, number four.
01:07This is the biggest thing that's ever happened to me.
01:13Easier, I would say.
01:15Still kind of hectic because PJ is two.
01:17Can you tell me how you met?
01:19So we met in college.
01:21That was my junior year, 2016.
01:24Do you want a big family?
01:26I mean, I always would play I wanted a big family
01:29because I come from a big family.
01:31I'm one of nine kids.
01:32And I'm like, babe, three tops.
01:34Three is it. Three is my limit.
01:36And then when I was pregnant with them,
01:38before I knew it was quadruplets,
01:40the way I was feeling, I said, Peyton, I said, this is it.
01:42I said, I can't do this anymore.
01:44I said, it's going to be it.
01:45And sure enough.
01:50So you go in for an ultrasound.
01:52Tell me about that moment.
01:53I go in for the ultrasound.
01:55I knew something was up by the look on her face.
01:58Yeah, she was like very awkward.
02:01Then on the Doppler, it showed like two heartbeats here.
02:04I'm like, oh, two in.
02:05So I'm already processing.
02:06I'm like, dang, two in.
02:08She was like, wait.
02:09She moved it over four circles.
02:11I was like, whoa.
02:12It felt like somebody punched me in the stomach
02:15and then like stomped me out.
02:18I was like, oh.
02:20He was grabbing the wall like, is there some water somewhere?
02:23I'm like, oh my goodness.
02:25The ultrasound tech was like, what were you guys taking?
02:28Are you getting in vitro, IVF?
02:30Or what were you taking?
02:32I'm like, I take vitamin C.
02:34It was just like I was torn.
02:35Because I'm like, what?
02:36Quadruplets.
02:37Then I'm like, wow, this is so amazing.
02:40So yeah, torn.
02:42That's how I felt, torn.
02:44This is some cute little onesies we have for the girls.
02:47We got so much stuff, guys.
02:48We're so grateful everybody was willing to buy four of everything.
02:52Tell us about the two identical twins.
02:54So these two are twins, Fallon and Lyric.
02:57It's like the two Ps are twins.
02:59And then the two Lyric and Fallon are twins.
03:02Pray, pray, pray, pray.
03:05Pray, pray, pray.
03:06By the time you finish feeding one, not somebody else is hungry.
03:09Because there's only two of us, and there's four of them.
03:11Well, really five.
03:12Because PJ is still a baby.
03:15And how is Pete Jr. fighting being a big brother?
03:19He's still trying to fight for his own attention.
03:22But for the most part, he understands that it's not just him anymore.
03:26Trying to use his inside voice.
03:28That's his biggest dilemma, being gentle.
03:31Being gentle, because he's a two-year-old boy.
03:39How did your friends and family respond when you told them?
03:43Everybody thought we were playing.
03:46Open the door.
03:47Hi, PJ.
03:48Hi.
03:52It's overwhelming for me to just walk in.
03:54When I walk in, I'm like, where do you start?
04:04How did you feel when you got the news that your daughter was pregnant with pods?
04:10My initial reaction was, oh, my God.
04:16And then I went into action.
04:17I'm like, what do we do?
04:19How do we plan for babies?
04:22So my mom made us a GoFundMe a few weeks after we found out,
04:26because we were just overwhelmed with the thought of having to provide for quadruplets plus our toddler.
04:32It just seemed like we need help.
04:35They say it takes a village. It really does.
04:38It's taking a community.
04:40But we need bigger than the village.
04:42A small island nation.
04:45I try desperately on the weekends to come in and prepare at least two or three meals to carry them through.
04:52But because I'm such a good cook, they like to eat it all up in one or two days.
04:57You should be hungry.
04:58PJ!
04:59What reactions did you experience online to sharing that you were having quadruplets?
05:05The comments on the picture when we announced it, so many people were like, what are quadruplets?
05:11You guys are having four? I don't know.
05:13Somebody said, y'all having four kids at once?
05:16People say a lot, couldn't be me.
05:18I couldn't do it.
05:19And I'm like, that's why you didn't get it.
05:21You know, I didn't think I could do it, but I'm doing it.
05:24I'm trying my best.
05:26Sometimes I'll just stroll through the comments and I just see that's the two things that always pop up.
05:32I don't like their names. Their names are weird.
05:34Or they have to be taking something.
05:37So they have money and blah, blah, blah.
05:40I'm like, I take vitamin C.
05:43This is nothing that we did.
05:45I would tell people all the time, even friends or close family, they're like, what were you guys doing?
05:52How did y'all do this?
05:53I'm like, y'all, I would not purposely have four kids.
05:58The process of getting dressed and having to get in the car.
06:02Have you seen any of the online stuff?
06:05I did. I did. I saw the online and I laughed.
06:08A lady that commented about if you have enough money for IVF, why are you doing a GoFundMe?
06:16And it's like, OK, we didn't.
06:18It's natural. One in 700,000 people conceive naturally.
06:25I figured that this is a blessing, you know, one in 700,000 to have a natural, you know, spontaneous quadruplets.
06:36So I feel like we should share this with the world.
06:39It's like winning the lottery.
06:41We just let it roll off our shoulders.
06:43We don't even buy into it.
06:45It's not worth it.
06:46Jay and the quads.
06:48How do you feel about these two sharing their life on social media?
06:54So, and you open yourself up to negative, you know, folks.
07:00And but they both have a strong, strong spirituality.
07:06I'm not against it. It's a wonderful story.
07:08You know, it's amazing and I'm happy for them.
07:11Look at my baby girl grow into such an amazing mother.
07:15So I am so, so very proud of her.
07:21If I had to describe this family in one word, I would describe them as amazing.
07:29Where do you hope you'll be in the future?
07:31I see us in a bigger house.
07:34Running around like crazy people.
07:36Happy chaos.
07:39I hope for the future that my family can achieve peace, happiness.
07:43Do you want any more kids?
07:44No, I do not want any more kids.
07:47I love them. I don't want any more.
07:49I do not want any more kids.
08:04You
