Five times the fun: Latino family welcomes quintuplets into the world

As Jose Garcia wheels his wife, Bianca, around Methodist women’s hospital in Omaha, Nebraska, the soft-spoken couple is still reeling.

On July 25th, they made five additions to their family.

“She had texted me earlier saying, ‘Hey, I think the babies are going to be born today,’ and then like 20 minutes later when the doctor called me, I’m like ‘Yup!’” recalls Jose.

Carrying five children had its complications.

The babies were born after only 28 weeks.

“Right now, it’s just getting them healthy just so we can get them home. That’s what we’re worried most about right now,” said Bianca. “Later on, I guess we’ll just see how they grow.”
