been childless for 18 years, was delivered of quadruplets last Sunday.
The quadruplets are three girls and a male. They were delivered at the
Graceland Medical Centre in Benin City, Edo State.
According to The Nation,
Mrs Clara who got married in 1996, said it was God's gracethat kept
her and her hubby through the trials and tribulations of
childlessness.
She said due to the childlessness problem, she refused to keep friends.
"I am happy that my husband and I were able to stay together to this
day to witness the blessings of the Lord. My husband has been
encouraging me that God will do it for us. My husband never
contemplated driving me away.
I was happy when the scan showed it was four. Sometimes I think of how
I will carry the four of them. I have not seen somebody delivered four
babies. It was not easy for me to carry the pregnancy. At a time the
weight of the pregnancy was too much for me.
I was the one dedicating children at our church every last Sunday of
the month. I was the first to visit anybody that I knew that gave
birth so that I can give them what I have. I am not the jealous type.
It was my husband's cousins that tried to take the matter up but my
husband stopped them. My parents were also there to encourage us. That
was what kept us together because the family pressure was not there.
They knew we were Christians and nobody could penetrate my husband and
I."
One of the Graceland Medical Centre doctors, Dr. Oni Samson, said the
babies were delivered through cesarean section.
"You don't expect a woman that is having multiple births to do that
through the vaginal. This is the first time we had quadruplets in this
hospital. The children are okay. The ante-natal was uneventful. They
are still under care for them to be stabilized." -she said.
