A 27-year-old woman, Zeenat Waheed, has given birth to six healthy babies, comprising four boys and two girls, in the span of just one hour. The miraculous delivery took place at a hospital in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, on Friday, April 19th.


Zeenat Waheed, wife of Mohammad Waheed and a resident of Hajira Colony in Rawalpindi, was admitted to the district hospital after experiencing labor pains on Thursday, April 18th. The medical staff at the hospital swiftly responded to the situation, preparing for the unique delivery.


Despite facing complications during the delivery, a specialized medical team successfully managed the operation, ensuring the safety of both the mother and the newborns. All six infants, each weighing less than two pounds, were immediately placed in incubators, where they are currently being cared for.


The medical superintendent overseeing the delivery remarked on the complexity of the procedure but expressed gratitude for the successful outcome. Zeenat, though facing some post-delivery health issues, is expected to recover fully in the coming days, according to hospital sources.


Both the families of Zeenat and Waheed, along with the hospital staff, are overjoyed. The sextuplets' birth has brought immense happiness and gratitude to the families involved, who see it as a true blessing.
