A COUPLE who wanted to try for one more baby got more than they bargained for when they conceived quadruplets.
Gaby Hagler, 40, and her husband, Patrick, 50, were ecstatic after finding out they were pregnant in December 2021 – after trying for a fourth and final child to complete their brood.
The couple have a two-year-old son together, Sammy, and they each have a child from a previous relationship.
But they were shocked when the sonographer revealed they were expecting naturally conceived quadruplets at their 12-week scan in January 2022 at one in a million odds.
Daunted by the prospect of becoming a family-of-nine, they knew they would have to make big adjustments in their life.
