A woman in Ohio has given birth to her second set of triplets!Victoria Lasita and her husband Tim conceived both sets naturally, without fertility treatments that increase the chance of multiple pregnancies. The chances of conceiving one set of triplets naturally were about one in 8,000, making the odds of having them twice far higher, he said. Having triplets once did not affect the chances of having triplets a second time, added Dr Hofmann, medical director of the Bethesda Center for Reproductive Health and Fertility.
Casey Alexander was the first born at just 4lb 2.5oz. He was followed by Caden Bradley, at 4lb 13.5oz and Carson Charles, at 4lb 9.5oz. Their father said it was still too early to know when the babies will be ready to go home and join their older siblings, Jessica, Jillian and Brian, who will soon turn four.
