A triplet mother defied odds of six million to one to conceive three children naturally, but she reports that caring for three infants has rendered her sleep-deprived and depressed. Norway's Judit Agota Minda, age 31, was taken aback when she learned she was harboring three children with her 38-year-old partner Glenn. Doctors advised Judit to contemplate a foetal reduction due to her cardiac condition, but she could not imagine her existence without her three sisters, with whom she grew up sharing a "unbreakable" bond.
She gave birth to all three via caesarean section on January 29 of this year, at the age of 34 weeks, and admits that the lack of sleep associated with having three infants has caused her depression. Judit and Glenn stated they would not have it any other way despite the obstacles. The new mother wrote in an Instagram post shared with her 31.1K followers last month, "We have been suffering through a truly awful period." Something brought me down mentally. I had days where I couldn't even get out of bed because I was so nauseated and uncomfortable, and I was eventually unable to even hold my own children due to my illness.
I was considering how unwelcome I was in my family and how my disappearance would make my loved ones' lives easier. Because of our new sleep regimen, we don't get much sleep on certain days. The infants do not yet have established sleep patterns, and they awaken at various times throughout the night. 'Sleep deprivation is real, and it may exacerbate ss symptoms, which is something I have never experienced.' In Hungary, Judit and her two sisters Sofia and Szilvia were born by C-section at 36 weeks to a 22-year-old mother.
Szilvia had dark hair and was the calmest of the three siblings, but she bore a remarkable resemblance to her sister, Sofia. Judit told new! magazine, "My sisters and I have always been there to encourage each other." We were inseparable, and we frequently discussed buying three properties on the same block. Judit lived in the United States for some time before returning to Norway in 2015 to join her sisters and become a primary school teacher after studying the language for four months. In December 2016, Glenn, a managing director, met his partner through an online matchmaking service, and three months later they moved in together.
In June 2018, Judit became expectant, and the couple was shocked when the doctor detected three heartbeats at eight weeks. Judit remarked, "They believe a naturally conceived triplet has a one in six million possibility of having naturally conceived triplets." Even though I was overwhelmed by the prospect of caring for three infants, I felt so fortunate to be able to provide my own children with the same unique upbringing that I had received with my sisters. Due to Judit's tachycardia, which causes an irregular pulse, doctors feared that having three children would place excessive burden on her heart. They proposed gestational reduction to eradicate the weakest child in order to give them all the best chance of survival, but the parents, who had initially agreed, decided they couldn't do it. Judit began an Instagram account to document her pregnancy, and her posts have received hundreds of likes from other mothers of triplets. She disclosed her severe morning nausea, stretch marks, and urinary weakness. Her three children, Filip, Amelia, and Henrik, were delivered in January and weighed 4lb 4oz, 3lb 4oz, and 3lb 3oz, respectively. Judit recalled, "The first time my children were placed on my bosom, I cried floods of joy." Never before had I experienced such an intense surge of affection.
The infants remained in intensive care until they were able to return home. Judit now maintains her Instagram feed with gorgeous images of her family of five, along with frequent updates and forthright confessions. She recently admitted that becoming a mother to three young children for the first time has transformed her into a "different person" and that she and her family are experimenting with a new sleeping schedule. She wrote, "I feel like I've matured at the age of 31 because I had to mature." I have irrevocably fallen in love, been responsible for wholly dependent children, experienced melancholy for the first time, and have a strong desire to be a better version of myself in order to raise confident and happy children.
