Four sisters are all pregnant at the same time in a sweet twist of fate

In an adorable coincidence, four sisters are all expecting babies around the same time, and are all set to give birth this year.

First-time mum Kayleigh Stewart, 29, and mum-of-one Jay Goodwillie, 35, both plan to deliver baby boys in May, and mum-of-one Kerry-Anne Thomson, 41 and mum-of-one Amy Goodwillie, 24, are earlier on in their pregnancies.

The number of young children in their family will double from four to eight, with the addition of two boys for the first time.

This Christmas the family get together will include 22 people, including new babies, partners and grandparents.

The siblings, from Stirling, also have two other sisters, mum-of-one Kim Goodwillie, 27, and Jodi Goodwillie, 21.

Jay’s due date is May 11 and Kayleigh is due to give birth 11 days later, while Kerry-Anne is due in October and Amy’s is in August.

Kayleigh, who works as a dog-walker, said: ‘All the babies will have cousins the same age.

‘Me and Jay were both due on May 22, but her one is now May 11.

‘I’m still quite shocked.

‘I have loved being an aunt and want to be a really active mum.’

Jay had been trying for a baby, and on Facetime she broke the news to her sister – who replied ‘me too’.

‘A few weeks later we decided to tell the family at the same time, with t-shirts,’ Kayleigh added.

They shared a gender-reveal party, and both found out they were expecting boys.

Amy, who runs the family guesthouse, announced it at Christmas, and Kerry-Anne, who works in pensions, shared the news in March.

Both women had hoped for another child but wanted to focus on their young daughters’ early years first.

Kayleigh added: ‘We have always been a close family, at one point we all lived together in a house share.

‘Our mum is so excited, she is going to be everyone’s birthing partner.’

Statistically, it’s unlikely they’d all be pregnant at the same time, which makes the occurrence even more special.

‘It’s been good being able to say “do you feel this?”, especially to Jay as she is at the same stage.

Kerry-Anne added: ‘It’s really exciting for the family.

‘I love the fact that the babies will all be in the same class together once they go to nursery and school.

‘I’m sure they will be great friends.’
