In France, everyone once knew her name. The press called her the “Baby Boom Mom,” and magazines put pictures of her newborns on their front covers.
28-year-old Marie-Claude Adam became the first French woman to give birth to sextuplets — it was a medical miracle.
Marie-Claude married Daniel Adam when she had just turned 19. He was much older, respectable, and already well established. The family was financially secure, so they didn’t delay having children.
But no one could have predicted that the very first pregnancy would bring such a surprise. At 32 weeks, through an emergency C-section, six premature babies were born — four girls and two boys.
All of them were immediately placed in incubators. Despite the risks, the doctors were optimistic: the babies had no serious conditions, just low birth weights.
Under supervision and with proper medical care, they quickly began gaining weight and developing like typical children.
Raising six children is no easy task. The Adam family’s home resembled a small daycare. Marie-Claude fully devoted herself to caring for the kids. While Daniel worked and provided for the family, she spent all those years as a full-time mother.
As the children grew older, their organization was impressive. The girls studied in the same class, the boys in a parallel one. Each had their own personality and interests, but they were always united.
However, over time, everything changed. After graduating, the teenagers went their separate ways — to different colleges, universities, and cities.
The house became empty, and the couple, who had spent years in constant parenting mode, were alone together for the first time in ages. Their relationship didn’t survive this new stage. Marie-Claude and Daniel eventually divorced.
Today, Marie-Claude is retired and used to work at a school. She is not only a mother but also a grandmother. Daniel is also retired and a grandfather. They live in separate homes and lead their own lives.
The six children — now adults — live in different parts of France. They sometimes talk on the phone, but rarely all meet up.
The whole family only gathers three times a year: in September for the father’s birthday, in November for the mother’s, and in December for Christmas. But even then, someone may not be able to come, and one or two seats might be empty at the table.
