The Dominican Republic’s first set of sextuplets, born last 26 December, is doing pretty well, according to the latest reports. Emilio Jose, Manuel Emilio, Hugo Nicolas, Paola Esther, Nerey Kiara, and Emely Marie were born at the Plaza de la Salud, and have now spent the last three weeks at home. According to the same reports in Listin Diario, the children laugh when they hear their parents’ voices, and are taking between three and four ounces of milk every two hours. According to the reports, if one cries, they all cry. The parents can tell the sextuplets apart by small details of size and some birthmarks.
Doctors from the Plaza de la Salud visit the children regularly for checkups.
