PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Doctors at the Mount Hope Maternity Hospital Monday delivered six babies as a 28 year-old woman became the first person to have sextuplets in the Caribbean.
The three boys and three girls were delivered by caesarean section and lead obstetrician Dr. Bharat Bassaw said the births had to be brought forward as the health of the mother was deteriorating.
“At this point the mother is very stable …the babies of course are still very critical and the birth weights range from one pound nine ounces to just under three pounds.
