Kellee Briggs realized she was expectant as soon as c.o.v.i.d. 19 arrived in 2020. The initial ultrasound revealed that the woman was pregnant with triplets; however, complications led to the loss of two of the three infants, and on September 24, 2020, only one boy, Chase, was delivered. Then, ten months after her first birth, the family learned that Kelle was pregnant with triplets once again. Triplet pregnancies are uncommon; approximately 1 in every 9,000 infants are triplets. Two consecutive triplet conceptions are incredibly rare, occurring once in 64 million times! She gave birth to two sons and a daughter in March 2022.
"Doctors have stated that it is common for older women to have more s in their s as menopause approaches," Briggs stated. The challenges of her first pregnancy were worn out. "I've never been expectant before, but I noticed that the doctor's expression was off. "He just scanned and scanned the screen, and when I saw all three of them, I had no idea what he was looking for," the mother said. Then he was informed that the other two infants had been lost.
"Chase is the only child who survived the pregnancy and flourished in the womb, while the other two embryos remained undeveloped blobs. "I went through a very difficult time because of the ss of my children," said Kellee Briggs.
However, the second triplet pregnancy was even more distressing for the family, as Kellee had not received any hormone treatment and there was no history of multiple births in the family.
"I couldn't fathom what it would be like to give birth to three at once," she said.
The woman persisted on retaining all three of her fetuses, despite the fact that doctors strongly recommended that she only carry one child in the future because it is much safer.
The couple was overjoyed, but at the same time, they feared that the catastrophe would reoccur, as specialists insisted that there was only enough space inside for the healthy development of one child.
"I was immediately reminded of when we lost our other two babies during my first pregnancy."
Doctors said there was no way she could give birth before week 24 and still have a chance of survival, so they could only be certain that Kellee would give birth as near to week 32 as feasible. But as Kellee's condition worsened, physicians once more delivered the alarming prognosis that the closer she got to the end of her pregnancy, the greater her risk of developing diabetes.
Kellee stated, "I was concerned because my father also died of a heart attack when I was young."
Kellee did, in fact, develop hypertension and diabetes over time, but she was able to terminate her pregnancy by the 32nd week, thereby rendering the situation somewhat safer. Briggs eventually gave birth to three children: Aiden, Isaac, and Addalyn, despite a number of complications during the delivery, such as the C child being significantly smaller than the other two, and the umbilical cord posing a problem for the physicians. After giving birth, Briggs struggled with Bell's paralysis, a common side effect of giving birth to triplets, and the infants grew sturdier in the incubator over the course of 55 days.
Thankfully, they have all returned home and are attempting to organize their daily lives so that the duties involving their four children run as efficiently as possible. Briggs must have learned from the children that sometimes it is necessary to release a restrictive attachment.
"Simply cease and relax; drift with the tide. That is the only way you can get your head above water. "It has been a huge adjustment for me to acknowledge that I cannot do everything on my own and require assistance," said Kellee Briggs.
