Here's What It Feels Like To Be Pregnant With Quintuplets

Kimberly Tucci is an Australian mother of two daughters. With the hope to complete their family, she and her husband tried for a boy last year. But will add four more girls and a boy instead -- after she found out that she's carrying five babies in late July.

Hence, the 26-year-old mom started a blog called Surprised by Five, where she chronicled her pregnancy period, including her pregnancy struggles.

"Mummy guilt has kicked up a level! I'm trying to get through all the pain just on Panadol alone if I can help it," the expectant wrote on Jan. 17. "I can't bear the thought of any drugs passing through to my babies."

Ms. Tucci also revealed that sometimes she can barely walk as she can feel the pain in her hips and the stiffness to her pelvis. She also said that as per her doctor's advice, the recommended daily consumption for her case should be 6000 calories a day.

However, she said she's having a hard time following such as she always feels her stomach is brimming with babies. There were even times when she forced herself to eat something but it only left her with reflux that lasted for hours.

Kimberly then confessed that she's dealing with a huge change on her body part. She admitted that she has stretch marks all over her stomach and her belly is really stretching. "It's painful and hot to touch," Kimberly added. She also said no amount of cream can ease her discomfort.

Nevertheless, Tucci gains strength and inspiration from her husband. She said he always reminds her to be proud as her body is nourishing five beautiful babies. "My husband always reminds me I should wear my stripes with pride," she wrote. "Without him, I would have broken down a long time ago."

The happy mom also announced that her babies will be arriving anytime soon.
