The quintuplets are the first to be born in the UK for five years
Quintuplets born to a Russian woman in a British hospital are doing well, according to doctors.
The 29-year-old music teacher gave birth to the five girls in the early hours of Saturday at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital, 14 weeks early.
They ranged in weight from 1lb 13oz to 2lb 2oz after being delivered by Caesarean section by a team of 18 doctors and nurses.
It is the first birth of quintuplets in the UK for five years.
The last set were born in Belfast at the end of 2002 and have now just started school.
