An Alabama couple is celebrating the arrival of six tiny blessings after facing heartbreaking miscarriages and years of fertility treatments. Eric and Courtney Waldrop, already parents to three boys, officially became a family of eleven last week when Courtney gave birth to sextuplets—three boys and three girls.
“They’re oh so very little but absolutely perfect!!” Courtney shared in an emotional Facebook post. Just days later, she provided an update, saying, “Little did we know that a week ago today, the Lord would choose to bring our sweet little babies into the world. All six babies are doing well. They are all off the ventilator as of right now. They are such tiny miracles and fighters.”
The proud parents introduced their newborns—Blu, Layke, Tag, Rawlings, Rayne, and Rivers—through a series of photos. While the babies continue to grow stronger, Courtney has been focusing on her own recovery, sharing that the journey hasn’t been easy.
“Today has been very hard for me. My body is in complete surprise after growing six babies,” she wrote. “I have been very weak.” She added that her recovery has been a “slow go,” but she remains hopeful as she regains her strength.
