DD/DS/DD: Dana Margaret, Zachary Howard & Layla Alyssa (nb)Xander and Rose really wanted another kid, but after four years of trying the 'old-fashioned' way they decided to try fertility treatments. And then they found out they were expecting triplets! Rose sort of fell into hysteric laughter, and Xander stared blankly into space for a while, but eventually they both calmed down and prepared the nursery.Rose got a call in the middle of the night to find out that Xander had been arrested for drunken fighting. She got him out of jail the next day, after he had sobered up, and the two got in a massive fight, after which he agreed to start seeing a therapist.Panther, and Venus

DD/DD/DS: Georgia Mae, Louella Grier "Lou" and Elijah Kol (nb)
DFishes: Milli, Geo, and Bot (5)Aaron is still playing for Arsenal and loving every moment. Although, he may be retire in the next two years. Giuliana's store has taken off and there is now a shop/office on Sloane Street and a shop in Canary Wharf. She's even had a spot in London's Fashion Week!Celia, now 8, is in Year 2 and she's loving every moment of it. She has made two best friends - Bryony & Olivia. She LOVES horses and started taking riding lessons two years ago. She loves all kinds of animals, reading and nature (she's ALWAYS outside). Niall, now 6, is a little bit more outgoing than his older sister. Ok, A LOT more outgoing. He loves putting on shows and making people laugh, as well as singing. He's also very into the guitar right now, so he's taking lessons. And of course he loves football (soccer).
--- ---- ---- ----
Around two or three years after Niall was born, Aaron and Giuliana decided they were going to try for one more child, but when things weren't going as well as planned, they opted for fertility treatment. The couple knew this COULD lead to multiples but they didn't care. Twins wouldn't be so bad. But, SURPRISE! At their first ultra sound after conceiving, Aaron and G found out they were expecting triplets. After the excitement had calmed, a slight fear fell over the couple. For G, she knew she didn't want to give up her store but she knew taking care of triplets would take a lot more work than caring for a single newborn. And since Aaron was traveling a lot for work, she knew they needed help. It killed her. She didn't want to be one of THOSE "celebrity" parents where they had a nanny she each child but she knew, realistically, they couldn't do it on their own. So, before the arrival of the triplets, Aaron and G sat through interview after interview searching for the perfect nanny to their children. Eventually, they hired two, who will alternate shifts.

DS: Miles Ulysses (6)
DS/ DS/ DD/ DD: Cecil Sebastian / Tristan Laurence / Simone Verity / Astrid Pearl
Dfishes: Lincoln, Kedzie, PulaskiIt's been five years, and things are going okay for Franny, Damon, and the kids. Franny really enjoyed her freelance business, but as soon as Miles was old enough for preschool she gave it up and went back to corporate photography, working for an internet realtor. Damon continued to rise through the ranks at the hospital, and was recently promoted to department head. Hazel is in third grade. Her favorite thing is drawing, not surprising for the daughter of a photographer and a granddaughter of artists. Miles just started first grade and is obsessed with animals, especially big cats like lions and tigers. His room is a jungle of nature books.About two years after Miles was born, Franny and Damon decided they wanted one more child, but a year and a half later they were no closer to conceiving. Damon made an appointment with a well-known fertility expert, who diagnoses them with secondary infertility. Franny and Damon aren't sure how to move forward. They take a break for about three months, but ultimately decide to go forward with fertility treatments. It's an ordeal. Franny conceives their first round of IUI, but quickly miscarries. Their second try gets no results. They think about giving up, but decide to try one more time... and it works. Franny conceives. Franny is worried because her morning sickness is much more severe than with earlier pregnancies, and at their seven week scan they find out why: she's carrying quadruplets. Franny and Damon immediately panic. They immediately ask about selective abortion - it seems like the most logical option. But neither of them hurry to make the appointment. Their lives feel like and endless debate. Franny keeps working, but finds it difficult. Her body is already changing and she's sick all the time. Is she willing to derail her career again? Will they be able to afford four kids? What about the kids they already have?

Ddog: QuincyWith lots of help from the community and her psychologist, Kathleen was able to beat depression and regain control over her life. In the year following Tucker's death, Kathleen wholeheartedly devoted herself to her children and her business, not really allowing romance to knock on her door. That changed when a very handsome Briton, Ben, came knocking on her door, figuratively speaking, as he had just moved to Kuta to be a snorkeling instructor and was in desperate need of a house that fit his standards.Kathleen found Ben his dream house (well, sort of), and having taken an instant liking to each other, the pair began to hang out together more and more frequently. Soon their budding friendship evolved into a romantic relationship, and after two years of dating, they decided to get married. Kathleen's parents weren't even invited this time, but Ben's mum Joan and his sisters Ellen and Tamsin were more than happy to fly over and witness the moment when two families became one - and in an awesome tropical island, too.Ben had always got along great with Rémi and Twyla, but he and Kathleen thought they wanted another addition to their family; after all, Kathleen wasn't getting any younger, and Ben had bashfully voiced his desire to have a biological child of his own with the woman he loved. They got to work on it soon after the wedding, but after a year of trying to no avail, they opted for fertility treatments. When the pregnancy finally happens, they find out they'll be having not one, nor two, but four kids! They really got more than they bargained for, but fortunately, they can afford the extra mouths to feed, and Twyla is super excited about her new siblings; Rémi, however, not so much: he prefers to be out playing with Quincy, or swimming, and thinks babies are icky and gross.

S: Sebastian Keith Jack Sampson-Coe (5)
D/S/S: Addison Barbara, Phoenix Herbert and Devon Andrew (nb)It has been five years since Abbey and Jack's last child was born. Their oldest child, Tobias, is in his final months of Year 3 and beginning to find what he loves doing; sports. After years of academic struggle Abbey and Jack are delighted that Tobias is finding a release to his endless energy in physical activity. Their first daughter, Rose, is in Year 1 and unlike her big brother, is excelling academically - at least in her English. Teachers have said that Rose has a natural talent for writing, speaking and story telling - well Abbey and Jack know the speaking bit is true! Their baby Seb is finishing Reception, nobody can believe he is so big! Reports from his school say that Seb can usually be found in the library corner or at the drawing table, he is growing up to be a conscientious, loving child.
Two years after having Sebastian, Abbey and Jack felt that they were ready to welcome another child, after all they had wanted a large family, however to their surprise they found that after a year of trying Abbey was still not pregnant. They started at their GPs, who did a few initial tests before referring the couple to a specialist. From there is was determined that the fertility issues were stemming from Abbey and not Jack, and after talking through the many options that the couple was offered it was decided that Abbey would try some drugs that would hopefully increase ovulation. Abbey and Jack hoped that this would work as they knew they wouldn't be able to afford IVF with three existing children.
To their delight after two cycles on the drugs Abbey fell pregnant. They knew before that the risk of multiples was exceedingly high, but neither were prepared for the news at the 10 week scan that Abbey was carrying triplets!

Genders your choice.One of Ezra's friends, Renee, asks him to be a sperm donor for her, since she desperately wants a childe but not a partner. He agrees and they find out she's having triplets, one boy and two girls. They're over the moon and can't wait 'till the birth.
But there were complications during the delivery, and Renee died of too much blood loss, much like what happened to Emma when she gave birth to Hugo.
Ezra is at a loss of what to do. Not only has he lost one of his closest and oldest friends, there are also 3 babies with no home. The social workers at the hospital tell him he doesn't have to take care of them, but he feels like it's his duty to do so and with Devon's consent, they adopt the triplets.
Renee had picked out all the names but one; one of the girls' middle names. Devon and Ezra decide to use her name.

Dcat: Kal-elWhen Scarlett was 2 and a half, Jude and Phoebe thought it was time to start trying for a third and final child. They didn't expect it to happen right away, but the months started to pass by and nothing happened. Eventually, the month became a year. After discussing it together, they decide to start fertility treatments. They knew that the chances of twins was higher, but after having all this trouble conceiving they didn't think it would happen to them. After four months with fertility treatment, Phoebe found herself pregnant. They had already settled for a name, Jocelyn Sabra or Isaac Morgan. However, Phoebe was convinced that this one was a boy. She was right, but it wasn't just one boy... it was four of them!
Phoebe and Jude were expecting quads, and they were both equally shocked. At this time, Phoebe gets in to a big argument with her parents. They think it's stupid to have quads - it's too much and risky. They want her to do a selective abortion but Phoebe refuses. The disagreement goes on, and after that Phoebe doesn't talk to her parents for nearly three months. Phoebe had a C-section at 32 weeks. The four boys were born, but they were all small and fragile, especially Dominic. For a while, it wasn't sure if he would survive. It's first after two very nervous weeks that the family can breathe out, all the boys are okay. After a couple of more weeks, Phoebe and Jude can bring their newborn sons home, one at a time. Alice and Scarlett loves their little brothers, while Max is now a teenager and doesn't think it's all so fun. After the boys are born, Phoebe's parents tell her that she was right.
