Default Full House: Sextuplets named in alphabetical order

Sextuplets named in alphabetical order

BIRMINGHAM, AL (WBRC) - New mom of six, Heather Carroll, was described by her doctor today as a tiny girl who is "country tough." At 5'2", Heather carried sextuplets for 28 weeks before delivering them on Father's Day this past Sunday.

Heather, her husband Mitchell, and doctors involved in the pregnancy and delivery spoke with the media this morning. The parents, who already have a 22-month-old son, say they are overwhelmed but feel blessed with this opportunity.

The Dallas County couple had a history of repetitive miscarriages. They decided to use the same standard conception medication that helped them conceive their first child for this pregnancy. The medication often results in twins or triplets, but this time they got the rare result of six babies.

The babies were delivered Sunday at Brookwood Hospital. The parents say they're still in shock but are thankful for the support that their church and family has already shown.

At the press conference today, doctors pointed out that because of Heather's small frame, she had to consume 6,000 calories a day just to keep her growing babies nourished.

The babies were named in alphabetical order: Abbie, Brooklyn, Chloe, David, Ellie and Faith. That's five girls and one lone boy. They weighed in from one pound 10 ounces to two pounds, four ounces.
