Multiple pregnancies are rare: the probability of having twins is estimated at only 2% and that of having quadruplets at one in tens of millions. However, miracles do happen.

Fourteen years ago, at her first ultrasound, Julia discovered that she was carrying four embryos in her uterus at the same time.
The situation was complex because the children were developing in the same placenta and there was no guarantee that they would be healthy at birth.

After a cesarean section, it turned out that all the girls were in good health, although two of them initially had low birth weights, which quickly normalized.
What was remarkable, however, was not only that Julia gave birth to quadruplets, but also that all four girls bore an uncanny resemblance to each other.

This resemblance has been maintained over time, and the girls are constantly mistaken for each other.
The girls themselves are happy with their situation, as their common appearance has gained them some popularity. They have already received offers to work with various clothing brands.
Off The Record: Stay Safe and Aware
Have you heard about the recent stories circulating online? Women are coming across random water bottles on their cars or finding strange markings outside their homes, and it’s causing concern.

Viral videos suggest that these may be tactics used by kidnappers and traffickers targeting women. The code “1F” is believed to indicate “one female,” using the water bottle as bait to lure women out of their cars.
One such video shows a woman filming a car with a wire attached to the door handle in a parking lot. The caption reads, “WTF is this a joke? Someone better not get kidnapped.” To everyone’s surprise, a second vehicle with a wire wrapped around its handle is revealed.\
In response to these alarming videos, a man posted a TikTok video explaining that putting a zip-tie, wire, or thread on a car door is a common tactic used by those seeking to abduct women. He refers to it as “one of the oldest tricks in the book.” The wire is twisted around the handle to make it harder to remove quickly, giving thieves and kidnappers an opportunity to strike.
However, it’s essential to keep things in perspective. The “wire trick” was first mentioned in a Facebook post back in 2015. Canadian police, where the post originated, confirmed that no kidnappings had occurred as a result of this tactic. Organizations fighting against human trafficking have also not recognized the “wire trick” as a trend.
Some experts dismiss these social media warnings as nothing more than urban legends or scare tactics. They emphasize that traffickers primarily operate online and target individuals they know, rather than strangers.
While it’s always important to be cautious and aware of our surroundings, it’s equally important not to let fear take over. Stay informed, trust your instincts, and seek help when needed. Together, we can create a safer community for everyone.
