All four of my kids were born on the same day but different years... I think it's a sign from God
A mom who gave birth to all four of her kids on the same day but in different years has revealed that she believes it's a 'sign from God.' Nauzhae Drake, a nursing student from Apple Valley, California, welcomed her first child, Kewan, now six, on July 7, 2019. Two years later, on July 7, 2021, she gave birth to Na'zaiyla, four, and one year after that, on July 7, 2022, she had her son Khalan, three. And two weeks ago she welcomed her fourth child, Kailowa, on - you guessed it - July 7, 2025. That's right, all four of her children came earth-side on the seventh day of the seventh month, and Nauzhae believes something spiritual is afoot. While speaking exclusively with the Daily Mail about it, Nauzhae insisted that she went into labor 'naturally each time' and was not induced. 'I went into labor naturally each time, no induction or C-sections,' shared the mother-of-four. 'I was surprised when I had two children on the same day. And when it happened for the third time I was completely shocked. Kewan was born on July 7, 2019, Na'zaiyla on July 7, 2021, Khalan on July 7, 2022, and most recently, Kailowa, on - you guessed it - July 7, 2025 'The fourth time I thought would be impossible so when it happened [again] I was astonished.' She added that she was 'sad' she had to miss her kids' birthdays by giving birth. 'I'm not completely sure what it is but I am lucky and blessed to have them,' dished Nauzhae. During a chat with local outlet VVNG, Nauzhae said she believes 'it is a sign from God' and described her kids as 'angel babies.' She also revealed that the delivering doctor during her most recent birth didn't even believe her when she told him that her three other kids had also been born that day. 'The delivering doctor was amazed that he was the fourth doctor to deliver the fourth baby on 7/7,' she shared. 'He did not believe that all of my births were spontaneous, so he went into my chart and confirmed that they were before the delivery of the new addition.' The mother, who also pointed out that her kids all have the same birthmark on their right legs, added, 'I know it is a sign from God.' The odds of your baby being born on the same day as another family member is 0.003 percent. And the odds of all four spontaneous births occurring on the same date across different years is reportedly in the millions, per VVNG. Nauzhae's mom LaKesha Harrison previously told ABC that she thought her daughter was lying when she revealed she was in labor for a third time July 7. 'The third time she said, "Mom, I'm in labor," I told her, "I know that you are lying,"' recalled LaKesha. And after it happened for a fourth time, Nauzhae revealed, 'Everyone has told me to go and play the lottery.'

California mother keeps giving birth to a baby on the same day each year
A California woman miraculously gave birth to her fourth baby on the exact same day as her other three children. Nauzhae Drake, 26, delivered her newborn son, Kailowa, on July 7 - giving him the same birthday as his siblings. 'It is just amazing having them born all on one day. Everyone has told me to go and play the lottery,' Drake told KABC. 'That is always everyone's response, "You have triplets?" And I'm like, "No." "Twins?" "No. They're all born on different years."' Her three other children were also born on July 7: Kewan in 2019, Na'Zaiyla, in 2021, and Khalan in 2022. The mother-of-four claimed none of her children were due on July 7 and that they were all born naturally. '[The doctor] didn't believe I didn't have an induction,' Drake said. 'So, he went into my chart, and he saw that all of them were spontaneous. So, that means it happened on their own.' After she gave birth to Khalan, Drake told VVNG she was in disbelief over all of her children sharing a birthday. 'I was overwhelmed and anxious when going into labor because I couldn't imagine having three babies born on the same day. They were delivered naturally, no induction or C-section,' she said. Drake expressed her excitement about planning a birthday bash for her babies in 2023. 'Their birthday will be celebrated in one big party with three themes, and I can't wait to plan it this year. I want it to be so big,' she said. 'All I can say is we're so blessed. We are so lucky to have them, literally.' Drake's mother, LaKesha Harrison, said she was amazed when her daughter called in her 2025 to let her know she was going into labor for a fourth time on July 7 this year. 'The third time she said, "Mom, I'm in labor," I told her, "I know that you are lying,"' Harrison told the local news station.
