Tucci who turned 29-year-old on 4th May 2018 was a mother of three children before getting pregnant with the quintuplets. She was told by doctors to abort two out of the five babies but she reused.

Speaking to Kidspot about why she refused the abortion, Tucci shared her experience after having her first son who was delivered prematurely.

She said: “There were many teenage mums in the neonatal ward when Kurt was born, I would visit him multiple times a day and just sit by his side and hold his hand. On one occasion I witnessed another young mum who had been given the devastating news that there was nothing more the doctors could do for her daughter, she was born too soon.”

Tucci added: “I left the unit without seeing Kurt and sat in the stairwell and wept, I have always valued life more since that moment of pure sorrow.”

The quintuplets, four girls and one boy were delivered through a Caesarean Section two years ago with the help of 50 doctors and some nurses on January 28, 2016.

Tucci and her husband, Vaughn named the babies, Keith, Penelope, Beatrix, Tiffany and Allison.

Sharing her experience while carrying the five babies in her womb, Tucci wrote: “50 fingers 50 toes, 6 hearts beating at once. My body fought the toughest of battles to get five babies here safely,” “Everything I did I did for them.”

She also shared her life experience as she clocked 29 earlier this month. She wrote this on Facebook:

“I have gone through so much for a 29-year-old yet my life experience has been very limited, all I really know is how to be a good mum. I think there comes a time for many that doing anything outside of being a mum turns into this anxiety-filled experience, it’s so hard for me to look past being anything other than a mother these days, ask yourself now who are you if you aren’t a mum? I certainly don’t remember who I am, maybe because I hear the word MUM so many times a day I have been brainwashed to only see that person […].”
