Gaby and Patrick Hagler met in 2018 and got married shortly after. At the time, Gaby already had a daughter from her previous marriage, Kalleigh, and Patrick had a son, Paxton. After they got married, they had a child together, Sammy, but they wanted one more child together.
“With this, we wanted to finish having children, because I will be 40 in March and my husband will be 50 this month, and we thought it would be great if we had four children,” Gaby explained.
However, things did not turn out as expected. When Gaby got pregnant, she ʟᴏsᴛ the baby. Still, they didn’t give up, they kept trying, and she soon became pregnant again.
However, when she and her husband went for their first ᴜʟᴛʀᴀsᴏᴜɴᴅ on January 21, 2022, at 12 weeks, they were in for a huge surprise. While he was doing the test, the ᴛᴇᴄʜɴɪᴄɪᴀɴ started counting. “What is he counting? Limbs?” asked the worried mother. The ᴛᴇᴄʜɴɪᴄɪᴀɴ then smiled and said, “There are four babies.”
Gaby and Patrick were very surprised, they never dreamed that quadruplets could be born at this stage of their lives. Doctors determined it was a high-ʀɪsᴋ pregnancy, so the next few weeks were a struggle and Gaby had to undergo a ᴘʀᴏᴄᴇᴅᴜʀᴇ to prevent a ᴍɪsᴄᴀʀʀɪᴀɢᴇ.
“The end of January and the beginning of February was a crazy period,” recalled Gaby.
