How were the houston quintuplets possibly born completely healthy?
Bill and Kelly Phillips had quintuplets at the end of October in Houston. Kelly managed to keep them in for 33 weeks, which nearly tied the record for gestation of quintuplets. A full term pregnancy is 40 weeks. She also followed her doctors instructions religiously and toned down her activities. Her children, John, Becca, Ali, David and Kate range in weight from 3 lbs. 3 oz. to 4 lbs. 12 oz, very large and healthy for quintuplets.
