And here we were thinking one baby is hard work…
A 23-year-old Czech woman has today given birth to quintuplets. The quints are a first for the Czech Republic, and were conceived naturally, without the use of IVF.
Alexandra Kinova, who already has one child, welcomed babies Deniel, Michael, Alex and Martin and Terezka by cesarean section on Sunday.

Zbynek Stranak, chief doctor at the neonatal section of the Prague Institute for the Care of Mother and Child, said the birth took place "without any complications."
Stranak says that Alexandra and her five babies have been placed at an intensive care unit, and added that babies who were naturally conceived have a 95-percent chance to grow up healthy.
