An English couple won’t have trouble remembering their children’s birthdays – because all four were born on the same day.

Beating incredible odds of 133,225 to one, Emily Scrugham and Peter Dunn’s little ones all arrived on January 12.

Daily Mail reports the pair were amazed when their newborn son, Ryan, was born on the same day as his five-year-old brother Sam, and his two-year-old twin sisters Brooke and Nicole.

Down the line, the couple will have to plan a 21st, an 18th and a 16th birthday party all for the same day.

“I really can’t believe we have another birthday on the same day – it certainly wasn’t planned,” Ms Scrugham, 22, said.

“None of the births were due on January 12. Sam was two weeks late, the twins one month early and Ryan three days late.

“The twins had to be delivered by emergency caesarean section as doctors couldn’t find their heartbeats. I didn’t want them to be born on his birthday but I didn’t have a choice.

“And this time round, I went into labour 9pm on Saturday night [January 11] and Ryan appeared at 3am, meaning we now have an extra special little family.”

The couple, who’ve been together for seven years, said they will always celebrate all the birthdays at once.

“It doesn’t matter though – we plan to make every birthday a real family event where birthdays get celebrated individually and together,” Ms Scrugham said.

This year, Sam had his own cake and Brooke and Nicole shared one while waiting for mum to come out of hospital. [DailyMail]
