Rosie Phelps-Goggin, 40, and husband Brad, 45, were told she would need IVF after doctors discovered a problem with her uterus. Therefore, the couple’s childbearing is very difficult, and requires medical intervention, not natural if they want to have children. But Genevieve, Constance and Avangeline have come from an egg at 200 million odds.
Mother-of-four Rosie, of Pylle, Somerset, said: ‘Midwives always say that every pregnancy is different. Due to the number of fetuses carried in the body, the health status will change accordingly. And there will be effects on mother and child. But in pregnancy there was something very different from pregnancy, I was so exhausted that by mid-afternoon every day I had to lie down to rest. I am always in a state of fatigue, and worrying about my health will affect my children much? When I was 5 months pregnant for the first time, I felt my bump start to appear within a few weeks.
“It’s worrying, I started to feel pain and discomfort in my right side and was taken for an early ultrasound at 9 weeks. Because of the fatigue and the pain was getting thicker, so my husband and I couldn’t help but panic. When I went to the hospital for a checkup I told the doctor about my condition, the sonographer kept the monitor tilted out of view and she groaned nervously as she leaned against the monitor to take a closer look. I didn’t take care of myself at that time, I just took care of my little angels because they were still so young.
“I certainly didn’t anticipate the sonographer to come back and say that ‘not one baby, but three kids!’ I certainly didn’t think that something extremely terrible was wrong,” the patient said.
It’s been a roller coaster journey thus far, said Rosie.
