Preparations for three With the pregnancy progressing, the family needed to prepare for a new routine. At the house in Descalvado, the babies' room was set up with three cribs, as well as clothes, layette and vaccination records. Everything had to be thought of in triple quantity to welcome Thales, Kaleb and Anthony. "Everything times three, everything. I had a lot of help, I really have to thank God, I have a lot of help. I got almost everything from the babies", said the mother. In addition to the triplets, the couple has Isaac - who was their first child EPTV/Reproduction The pregnancy also demanded a lot from the mother, who reached the final weeks with the weight of carrying three babies. "It's very tiring, a huge burden, right? But who would have thought that we thought we wouldn't make it to 34 weeks. We thought we'd make it to 32," he said. The expectation for the arrival of the babies involved the entire family. The great-grandmother was already joking that she would need identification so as not to confuse the three. "Put a sign on each one so I don't get confused," he said. The older brother, Isaac, was also waiting for the babies to arrive. Little by little, he begins to understand that he will have three brothers at once, although he has made it clear that he intends to leave the care to his mother and great-grandmother while he takes the opportunity to play. Everything had to be thought of in triple quantity to receive Thales, Kaleb and Anthony EPTV/Reproduction Spontaneous triplet pregnancy In addition to being a pregnancy of three babies, the case caught the attention of the medical team because it occurred spontaneously, without fertilization or other assisted reproduction treatment. According to doctor Douglas Fernando Zavaglia, responsible for monitoring the pregnancy, cases of triplets are considered rare. "Studies show that one in every 10,000 births will be a triplet. And hers is interesting because it was a spontaneous twin pregnancy. She didn't undergo fertilization, she didn't do anything, she simply got pregnant and a triplet came along," he said. Santa Casa de São Carlos prepared a special structure for the birth, with three multidisciplinary teams and three pediatricians in the surgical center, precisely because of the need for individualized care for the three newborns. The doctor also said that he had never monitored a triplet pregnancy throughout his training and career. "From the time I graduated, to my residency, I never had a triplet pregnancy."

The family now begins a new stage with three babies in their arms. Before the birth, the mother said that the biggest anxiety was finally getting to know each one's face. "What we want most is to see the face, if it's similar, if it's not, if it's different," he said before the trio's birth. This Tuesday, the wish became reality.
