Mrs Tucci’s story gained prominence through her Facebook
page, Surprised by Five, where she recorded the details of her
pregnancy. Family photographer, Erin Elizabeth who helped document Mrs
Tucci’s pregnancy, organised the quintuplets’ photo shoot.
“50 fingers 50 toes, 6 hearts beating at once. My body
fought the toughest of battles to get five babies here safely,” Mrs
Tucci wrote when she posted the photos.
“Everything I did I did for them.”
In an interview with Australian current affairs program 60 Minutes
in April, Mrs Tucci said she felt like her body was “shutting down”
during the pregnancy and that doctors originally offered her the choice
of saving two of the babies while terminating the others, due to serious
health risks to both her and the unborn children
.
“No-one thought I could do it, and I did, I showed
everyone in my life,” Mrs Tucci told 60 Minutes. She and her husband
Vaughn already have a nine-year-old son and daughters aged two and four.
