Haggerty’s triplets are fraternal and the chances of their occurring naturally were about 1 in 8,000; for identical triplets, the odds increase to about 1 in a million. However, uts are prevalent in the families of Mrs. Haggerty and Mr. Bodge. And once a woman has t to uts, her probability of doing it again increases. Her grandmother’s cousin had triplets and her grandmother had twins. Meanwhile, Mr. Bodge’s great-grandmother gave birth to quadruplets, and several sets of twins were born on his side of the family.
Although the family has taken it all in stride, there have been difficult times. Haggerty claimed that triplets are extremely challenging because humans only have two arms and two legs, while babies seem to want them simultaneously. Haggerty lost a significant amount of work as caring for young children was time-consuming during her 90-minute commute between her home and the corporate office. However, the couple’s finances are currently her main concern. She commented, “The triplets were incredibly challenging at first because you only have two hands and two legs, and everyone wanted to be one at the same time.
Bodge said it was due to the lingering effects of a job that caused discomfort, so he was able to stay up all night and work. Bodge admits, “Honestly, it was pretty hard at first, but now my day is so fluid, and I have them on a wonderful schedule. Most people might find it scary, but I really want to make it to the end of the month, let’s go.” “I’m going to have to keep my composure. I’m prepared to work nights. At first, it was difficult in many ways, but now the couple feel much calmer. They have previous experience with triplets and are not as confused as before.
