Surprise Triplets: California Couple Welcomes Three Babies
25 Dec
Summary
- Couple discovered they were expecting triplets during an ultrasound appointment.
- The triplets, two identical and one fraternal, were conceived naturally.
- All three babies were born healthy and spent a short time in NICU.
A California couple's routine ultrasound appointment turned into an extraordinary revelation: they were expecting triplets. Stacie and Neal Radia, who had always dreamed of having at least three children, were astonished to learn they would soon welcome not one, but three babies. This natural conception of triplets is remarkably rare.
The couple's joy was compounded by the unique nature of the triplets: two identical twins, Alyx and Ella, and their fraternal sister, Charlie. The medical team monitored the pregnancy closely due to the potential risks associated with multiple placentas. Stacie reached 32 weeks gestation before the deliveries began.
Born in October, the triplets weighed around 3 lbs each and spent three weeks in the NICU before being discharged. Now nearing 7 lbs, the babies have brought immense happiness to the Radia family, marking a true "miracle" for the couple who had no family history of multiples.
