From Times Wire Reports
A woman gave birth to sextuplets, and doctors say the three boys and three girls are doing well.
Sondra Headrick, 33, and her husband, Eldon, 32, are from Rago, about 40 miles southwest of Wichita, which until Saturday had a population of 12.
The children were delivered by Caesarean section; they weighed from 2 pounds 10 ounces to 3 pounds 11 ounces.
The sextuplets resulted from fertility drugs; the Headricks also have another daughter.
