A young mother, Nadine Robertson, aged 24 and residing in Doncaster, has become a mother to five children under the age of five, after giving birth to two sets of twins within three years.
Her journey began with the arrival of daughter Isla in 2017, followed by the birth of twins, Olivia and Ivy, in 2018. More recently, 10 weeks ago, Nadine welcomed the youngest members of her family, Cody and Hazel.
Nadine and her husband, Phil, were surprised by having two sets of twins, as neither of them had a family history of twins. Interestingly, both sets of twins were conceived naturally, without the need for IVF.
Juggling a household with five young children is no easy task, but Nadine takes it all in stride. She admits that she simply takes each day as it comes, hoping that the kids will be in good moods and help her out. The family resides in a four-bedroom home, with each set of twins sharing a room while Isla has her own space.
When Nadine ventures out with all four children, strangers often stop her on the street, curious and amazed by the sight of two sets of twins. Some people even ask if she underwent IVF treatment, to which she explains that both sets of twins were conceived naturally.
Despite the curiosity and the challenges that come with raising two sets of twins, Nadine loves her role as a mother and embraces the uniqueness of her family. She finds it normal, especially since she is part of twin mom Facebook groups and sees other families with two sets of twins.
Nadine receives various comments from passersby, ranging from inquiries about her children's behavior to questions about IVF. Although the curiosity is understandable, she remarks that it is interesting how people tend to ask about IVF with two sets of twins, while such questions are not typical when parents have only one child.
In conclusion, Nadine and her growing family have embraced the joys and challenges of having two sets of twins naturally. Despite the occasional curiosity from strangers, they cherish the bond between siblings and enjoy the excitement of raising their five children under the age of five.
