Janet had been told she couldn't have children, so she and her husband Graham were overjoyed to find out she was pregnant. Then they told her the real news -it was not just one baby, but six! On 18 November 1983, Janet Walton gave birth to the world's first all-female sextuplets: Hannah, Luci, Ruth, Sarah, Kate and Jennie. Janet takes us through the reality of parenting six children of the same age - the extreme sleep deprivation, the bottle-feeding, and later the chaotic routine of getting six girls to school on time. As they grew up, Janet learned to keep a sense of humour through the teenage tantrums and boy trouble, and she watched her little girls blossom into individual, confident young women. She has loved every minute.
