Seven is a lucky number for many people. But for one California woman, it’s especially lucky. Nauzhae Drake recently gave birth to her fourth child – and for the fourth time, the baby was born on July 7.
26 years old Nauzhae Drake gave birth to her son, Kailowa on July 7. She’s also mom to kids Kewan, whom she welcomed in 2019, Na’Zaiyla, whom she welcomed in 2021, and Khalan, whom she welcomed in 2022 — all on the same date.
The mother of four tells PEOPLE, “After welcoming baby number four, I was completely astonished by having four children born on the same day.”
“I was sad because I missed another one of my babies’ birthday parties, and this would be the third one I missed due to being in labor,” she adds. “But I promised them I would make it up to them! It’s still surreal that they all share the same exact day for a birthday, so it’s like I have Christmas twice a year.”
Drake tells that the kids “also all have a birthmark on their right leg in different areas.”
“That is always everyone’s response, ‘You have triplets?’ And I’m like, ‘No.’ ‘Twins?’ ‘No. They’re all born on different years,'” Drake said.
Nauzhae told the outlet, “It is just amazing having them born all on one day,” when asked how she felt about her fourth baby being born on July 7.
Drake insisted none of her deliveries were induced and July 7 wasn’t the due date for any of her four kids, per the station.
She also said her doctor “didn’t believe I didn’t have an induction. So, he went into my chart and he saw that all of them were spontaneous. So, that means it happened on its own.”
Even Drake’s mother, LaKesha Harrison, couldn’t believe it after her daughter continued to give birth on the same day, as reported.
“The third time she said, ‘Mom, I’m in labor,’ I told her, ‘I know that you are lying,'” Harrison said, as Drake added that after welcoming her fourth baby, “Everyone has told me to go and play the lottery,” the outlet stated.
The odds of four children sharing the same birthday, without medical intervention, are estimated to be in the millions.
As well as being a mother to her four babies,” Drake is a nursing student and is expected to graduate this December, as reported.
She said, “I decided to continue my education and go to nursing school so I could give my children the life they deserve.”
This super mom of four has truly become an inspiration to people.
