Couple Deliver Naturally Conceived Identical Triplets
December 4, 2013 Sacramento, California msn.com A set of naturally conceived identical triplets was born at a Northern California hospital. A doctor said the odds of producing identical triplets without fertility drugs range from 1-in-1-million to 1-in-100-million. Doctors at a Northern California hospital say a couple has given birth to a rare set of naturally conceived identical triplets. The Sacramento Bee reports Abby, Brin and Laurel Hepner were born November 22 at Sutter Memorial Hospital to Hannah and Tom Hepner, of Quincy. The triplets were produced when a single, fertilized egg split into three. Dr. William Gilbert, director of Sutter Women's Services, says the odds of producing identical triplets without fertility drugs range from 1-in-1-million to 1-in-100-million. He said the rarity makes it difficult to more accurately calculate the frequency of such births. Abby weighed 3 pounds, 2 ounces; Brin 3 pounds, 11 ounces; and Laurel 4 pounds. The triplets are still in the hospital until they can maintain body temperature and eat properly.

Re: Couple Deliver Naturally Conceived Identical Triplets
We had identical triplet females living on the block when I was a child. All their first names began with K, but, they were not Kardashians. Not on that block! The woman later had twins, but, I don't know if they had any help. I doubt it back then. Kids don't ask questions. We just play. |

Re: Couple Deliver Naturally Conceived Identical Triplets
Sorta like how a dog pushes em out one after the other. And btw, I wouldn't recommend having children during these uncertain times of war and recession. It's getting to the point where people are becoming beyond poor and desperate. Especially with these billion dollar natural disasters. Don't even get me started on H.A.A.R.P and the one world govt. lol |
