Tyson and Ashley Gardner wanted nothing more than to finally get their family started. Little did they know that they would spend nearly a decade trying to conceive. It was a heartbreaking struggle for the husband and wife, until finally they got the news: Ashley was pregnant. However, the pregnancy was anything but average. After going in for an ultrasound, doctors revealed to Ashley and Tyson they were having four babies. The Gardner quadruplets would be made up of two sets of identical twins, all of them girls. The couple was ecstatic.
However, the pregnancy wasn't an easy one. Ashley got so sick during her pregnancy, she dropped 20 pounds instead of gaining weight. During labor, her hospital room contained 37 staff members to tend to her. The smallest of the quads weighed just a few ounces over one pound. Still, after eight years of trying and a pregnancy with its ups and downs, every single baby survived. Now the Gardner Quad Squad have their very own show on TLC. They even started their own business selling baby swaddles on Etsy.
The pair feel incredibly lucky to have their family and to be able to share their story with the world.
