How many umbilical cords do mothers have with quadruplets?

Answer 1

Mothers of quadruplets typically have four umbilical cords, one for each fetus. In a multiple pregnancy, each fetus usually develops its own placenta and umbilical cord, although in some cases, there may be shared placentas, particularly if the babies are identical. However, regardless of the placental arrangement, each baby is connected to the mother through its own umbilical cord.
