Children are adorable, and the “aww” factor skyrockets when you add a second, third, or more to the mix. Parenthood is different for parents of multiples. Some people say it’s both magical and the hardest thing they’ve ever done. The unique challenges and rewards of growing, giving birth, and parenting several children at once are something that parents of multiples have chosen to embrace.
From the moment you’re told there’s more than one ʜᴇᴀʀᴛʙᴇᴀᴛ, the entire experience of pregnancy, birth, and parenthood shifts. It can sometimes feel like your life becomes a sideshow. To celebrate the parents of multiples and capture some of the twin, triplet, and quad m.agic, we’ve collected some of the most incredible and adorable photos of newborn multiples.
