I Had A Singleton, Then Twins, Then Triplets And I Document The Life Of My Unique Family (30 Pics)
My name is Lucia, and I have a unique story. My husband and I didn’t have plans for a big family. My first pregnancy, I had a baby boy. My second pregnancy, I had twin boys. Then, my surprise third pregnancy, I had triplet girls.
Life is busy but I just love my big family. This was never my life plan but now, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love being a Mum.

So first, we had our son, and we were so happy to have grown our family. Then, when we found out we were having twins, we were so shocked, we couldn’t stop laughing at the ultrasound office. Then, when we found out we were having triplets, we couldn’t speak. We just couldn’t comprehend it. It was so surreal. The triplets arrived at 35 weeks and life became super busy. Breastfeeding three babies was a big challenge, but we did it.
Getting all six kids ready to go out took a long time. Preparation was the key. Luckily, I had my mum living close to us and she was able to help out. Also, allowing extra time when we went out in public, as everyone wants to talk to you when they see triplets and twins. The questions were sometimes very personal and very repetitive, but you can’t blame people for being so interested. Once I had a stranger ask if they could kiss one of my baby triplets. What? No!!
There was no me time in the early times, but I enjoyed going for a walk with the triplets in the pram, and boys on their bikes. It was my relaxation time. My triplet pram was awesome, but it was big… and no, it didn’t fit everywhere. I remember going to the zoo for the first time with all the kids, and we couldn’t fit through the gate. Luckily, we were able to use the staff delivery gate around the corner. You get used to such challenges.
Now, the kids are older, life is still busy, but different. I work part-time as a Photographer, and all the kids are at school. We still make time for family holidays which is our favorite thing to do. Spending time together exploring new places is what we look forward to the most.

You have a beautiful family! And... the chances to have twins AND triplets... well... I've never seen it before!!
brace yourself, apparently there was a russian peasant over two hundred years ago, that gave birth to the biggest amount of kids ever (sixty something maybe), and what bothers me most, none of those was a singleton, multiples all the way, just a fun fact :)

Oh wow :) <3 This is just so so SO beautiful! <3 Beautiful family and beautiful photos :)
You have a beautiful family, congratulations! I have a 5 and 3 year old boys. We planned for one more, and had twin daughters! Measures have now been taken to prevent more ;)
LOL, my goddaughter and her husband had one of each and decided they want one more. She is due to deliver twins (one of each) on New Year's Eve.

-Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, born 7th out of 7 children. Some people here would have criticized his parents for having so many kids. -George Washington, born 5th of 10 children (but 1st of his mother, Mary Ball, who had 5 more children) -Stephen Colbert is the youngest of 11 children
You KNOW that the next pregnancy would be quadruplets! I'm sure they made sure no more would be forthcoming!
WOW... I don't know how they manage to eat each day LOL The husband or wife must have a really good job. If I got one, I will have another child too.
Love all the comments about the planet dying. Not to worry people, it'll sort itself out. The planet's not going anywhere... we are ! By the way, they look like people who can actually raise 6 kids. Go hassle the dumb f***s who have kids only to have them live on well fare. Or better yet, the dump. (google it)
Such a beautiful family. Each & every one has a certain beauty in them. You have been blessed to have all6 growing up healthy & happy. That’s more than likely due to them having such good & loving parents. Just Wow!!!
You'r family is beautiful and magical! What a joy but an amazing amount of work. Congratulations, you are so blessed.
Your children are amazingly beautiful. I have twins also was told if I get pregnant again it is more likely to be multiple again and after carrying the twins to past full term .... The mere thought of having 2,3,4 ECT scares me on a molecular level. I LOVE YOUR FAMILY THOUGH!
Oh my...I am gollowing you dear! I cam on to check out mirror twins and found the blog...what a wonderful family! Congratulations to you both.
I love your Story, and you are truly blessed, with the way God put your family together & I'm very happy to know that your husband is there for all of you, in every step of the way, God bless his heart too. All in the family are beautiful. I'm so happy for you. Let me add, by you been a photographer came in very handy. Congrats. sincerely, Lorraine.
That’s amazing, but honestly, I feel bad for the eldest kid who probably gets asked annoying questions all the time.
I had identical twin daughters, beautiful ( not just my opinion ), healthy and a joy to watch. The highlight of my life - a 24 hour/day show. It was great watching them sleep - sucking each other's thumbs. I'm sure you realize how incredibly lucky you are.
Beautiful! I have to wonder, though, since they ALL look so much alike, if they will be confused for sextuplets when they are older (or at least the 3 girls=triplets)?
some people realize you are mistaken.................your parents for 2
