Doctors, pregnant women ... silly: Ultrasound shows 3, when birth comes ... 4 children

Vivian Van Gorder was diagnosed by the doctor to give birth to 3. The whole family was eagerly waiting for the 3 children to be born. But when Miss Van Gorder was in labor, the doctor was surprised to find the 4th child.

Because she was born 4, so Mrs. Van Gorder had to have a caesarean. Four children were born on May 21, including 2 boys and 2 girls. Birth 4 is inherently rare, but it is even more bizarre when the initial tests only detected 3 children, according to Fox News.

Although Mrs. Van Gorder has done many ultrasound tests, the doctors only discovered 3 children. Therefore, when the 4th child was born, everyone was shocked, including Ms. Van Gorder.

'When giving birth to her, we saw 3 children as she thought. I reached into the abdomen and found a baby elbow and turned to tell people that we were surprised , "said Dr. Tony Dunn, who directly delivered Mrs. Van Gorder's birth, said. with KXAN-TV.

Doctors think it is possible that the fourth baby could not be seen when the son was "hiding" behind his siblings.

When an ultrasound is performed, it is difficult to fully determine the number of arms and legs of a 4-year-old child because usually the ultrasound can only see one abdomen of the pregnant woman, Dr. Dunn explained.

When I knew I was born 4 and not 3 as expected, Miss Van Gorder was very shocked. Three of the four children were named Tristan, Erik and Clare. The total weight of all 4 babies is 9kg.

Currently, the couple Van Gorder is living in a city of Waco, Texas (USA). They are still thinking about naming the 4th child, according to Fox News.
