Lauren Dickason is on trial at the High Court in Christchurch.
She's accused of murdering six-year-old Liané and two-year-old twins, Maya and Karla, in September 2021.
The Court's heard the 41-year-old asphyxiated her daughters one-by-one.
Dickason admits killing the girls, but is mounting a defence of insanity.
She claims she was severely mentally disturbed - and did not know what she was doing.
