Hi mumsnetters, its been about a month since I brought my trio into the world. I had two sons (Quinn and Theo) and a daughter (Lydia), and already had two school-aged sons (Hugo and Xander). In one of my first posts about needing advice on their names, someone suggested I do an AMA on everything about having them, so here I am! Ask away everybody :)

Do you have a triple pram? Where do they all sleep? It’s the logistics that blow my mind, hats off to you!

How do you feed them?
If all three were crying for their food in the night how do you work out which babies to feed first?
Same with bums and winds etc.
Sorry if this sounds a daft question I struggled so much with just one baby nevermind having three.

@LittleRedRidingHoody I was really worried about car space before having the triplets. When I was about 7 months, my husband and I both sold our cars. I still had a tiny 4-seat car, and he had a small 5-seat car that barely fit our oldest's car seats. He upgraded to a people mover, I upgraded to larger sized 5-seat car. We bought all brand new car seats (we researched to find narrower ones) and have managed to fit all 5 seats into his car, though it was a struggle 😂, and put our oldest's old seats into my new car so I can drive them more.

Congrats a big one! 3 babies wow! Hooe you have all the support and a village to help you out.

Not in the same boat but. as we want 5 kids we did hella research into cars and the only car that would A) fit 5 child seats and B) meet our needs was the Seat Alhambra. It fits 3 large baby seats in the middle road and 2 further in the back row.

Were your triplets natural or from fertility assitance?
