Fourth set of twins for NZ family

An Auckland family has welcomed their fourth set of twins! Emma and Loma Uhila have beaten the odds with their unique family. Scientists estimate there is a one in 24 million chance of having four sets of fraternal twins.

The couple's first child, Micah, is the only non-twin child in the family. Making it even more surprising is that there are no twins in either Emma or Loma's families. Loma and Emma are now the parents of nine children - Micah (6), Ava and Lily (4), Isla and Eden (3), Indi and Emme (18 months) and their latest arrivals, Levi and Mia.
