Four sisters from Northern California all got pregnant during the coronavirus pandemic.
Caroline Toth, Amy Gossett and twins Haley Andrews and Katie DeAngelis were born 18 months apart and are now looking forward to raising their newest babies together.
“And so, it was just one of those things where Katie got pregnant, and it’s like, gosh, should we all just jump on board?” she continues. “And it worked out great that way.”

“We had made a joke earlier in the year of, ‘Hey, we should all get pregnant in 2020?’ because everyone was in lockdown with COVID,” Amy says.
“And it was kind of a joke, where it’s like, well, let’s see if we can get the husbands on board and whatever,” she adds. “And then it was one after another just started popping it. It was really exciting.”

Haley and Katie haven’t been pregnant before, and the sisters have all turned to each other for support.
“We have a sister thread going on that we’re talking daily, constantly, along with phone calls as well,” Caroline says. “Just, are you feeling this? Are you getting a lot of kicks? What’s going on? What symptoms are you experiencing? It’s an incredible experience to go through with your sisters and best friends. It’s just incredible.”
