Yikes! Woman gives birth to second set of triplets!

[speedymama]

Just saw this story. The chances of conceiving two sets of triplets naturally is 1 in 64 million. Imagine, two pregnancies and 6 children.

I have twin boys so I have an inkling of what it is like to have triplets but my goodness, two sets!

I wish the parents all the best!

TandT - a very good friend of mine had ( naturally ) triplet boys (now 7) and 2.5 years later twin girls ... she's utterly tiny - barely reaches 5ft on a good day with a following head wind - but she drives a mahoosive van effort - and has a booster seat for herself !!!

Well.............speaking from experience here, I only hope the 17yr old has lots of support and a good family behind her. I know our case was different, though we never thought that at my age then(45) we would come home with triplets. They are exhausting and I believe if I had had them 20 years earlier they would still have exhausted me. I have a daily diary on each child for their first year, and you wonder how you ever survived, it would make a good book!
