Where Are the McCaughey Septuplets Today?



On Nov. 19, 1997, Kenny and Bobbi McCaughey became the proud parents of septuplets. While under treatment for infertility, Bobbi became pregnant with 7 babies. The McCaugheys declined selective reduction to reduce the number of infants, saying that they would "put it in God's hands". The septuplets, 4 boys and 3 girls, born prematurely, were delivered by C-section by a team of 40 specialists, all within 6 minutes. It was only the second known case where all 7 babies were born alive. Over the years, there have been several documentaries that have covered the progress of the septuplets, but where are they today?
