Several factors can influence the chances of multiple births with IVF.Transferring multiple embryos significantly increases the likelihood of a multiple pregnancy. Maternal age also plays a role, with younger women generally having a lower chance of multiples, though this risk has decreased for women over 44 with the increased use of single embryo transfer. Utilizing donor eggs can also elevate the multiple birth rate, as donors are frequently enough younger and have higher embryo viability. there’s a small possibility of a single transferred embryo splitting, resulting in identical twins.
The mother acknowledges the demands of raising quadruplets but affirms her contentment. “I don’t have any regrets about becoming a single mum of quads - and they all realize how special they are.”
