If this were an old-fashioned hexagon, our sextuplet would be joyfully paired off by the time the curtain fell. Only two other sets of sextuplets have been born in Britain and Jan has now appointed a media agent. The sextuplets are seven today and they've been celebrating with cakes, presents and party games. The sextuplets were born after their Mum Sue had fertility treatment. While multiple births have increased in recent years because of the success of fertility drugs, sextuplets still are rare. word sets WORD SETS► Children baby, nounbaby boomer, nounbabyhood, nounbabyish, adjectiveboy, nounchildren's home, nouncustody, nounfamily, nounfirst generation, nounfoundling, noungame, nounguttersnipe, nounhyperactive, adjectivelegitimate, adjectivelegitimize, verbminor, nounminority, nounmite, nounmotherless, adjectivenurture, nounorphan, nounorphanage, nounpapoose, nounpreteen, adjectiveprogeny, nounpuppy fat, nounragamuffin, nounscamp, nounschool friend, nounsextuplet, nounspoiled, adjectivetinker, nountoddle, verbtoddler, nountoilet-training, nountot, nounupbringing, nounurchin, nounward, noun one of six people who are born at the same time and have the same mother
