What happens when you go in for your first scan… and find out you’re having four babies at once?
In this episode of All At Once, we’re joined by Taylah Glachan — mum to two-year-old quadruplets — who shares her experience of going from IVF to an instant family of six, navigating a high-risk pregnancy, months in hospital, and the reality of bringing four premature babies into the world.
From the shock of discovering she was carrying quadruplets, to being told the medical recommendation was to reduce the pregnancy, to spending two months admitted to hospital determined to make it as far as possible — this is a deeply honest conversation about motherhood when everything feels uncertain.
We talk about the birth of her four babies, their time in the NICU, and what life really looks like now raising four toddlers at once — from overstimulation and survival mode to the joy, perspective, and deep gratitude that’s come with it.
