Extremely Rare
After the news had sank in and everyone was on board with what was about to happen, Nia went back to the same doctor who had delivered her twins to schedule the delivery of the triplets. He describes it as “extremely rare” to become pregnant with one child, then two, and finally three children. Dr. Rami Tabbarah continued by stating that considering the circumstances, Nia’s pregnancies were truly amazing. “It’s extremely unlikely that it will happen to anyone in general,” Dr. Tabbarah said. “We’re talking about a birth rate of less than one in every 1,000.” The author notes that having two twins and then three triplets in the same lifetime is highly uncommon.

Being overburdened, standing taller than average, and being of African American descent are all signs that a woman is likely to give birth to multiples. It did, after all, make sense in the end.
