This amazing story began eight years ago when a young mother of a 3-year-old baby Becky Jo Allen found out she was pregnant again. Becky and her husband Liam Tierney have always wanted a big family, but when they were told at their first ultrasound that they were expecting triplets, they were a little scared.
After all, when a family doubles in an instant, one must be prepared for this. The babies were born at 31 weeks, much ahead of schedule, and weighed just over a kilogram. But the doctors, who had seen even smaller newborns, were surprised not by this, but by how much all three were similar to each other – not just the same facial features, but even moles in the same places.
Everything looked as if all three were identical twins. But how can this be, the worldly-wise obstetrician-gynecologists and geneticists wondered? After studying a large layer of literature, doctors came to the conclusion that this happens, but very rarely. In fact, it is one case in 200 million that three embryos develop in one fetal egg. Therefore, Becky was offered to do a DNA test of the boys, which confirmed that all three are absolutely identical twins.
This uniqueness even made the family famous. Newspapers wrote about the twins and TV channels told, that Becky did not wait for real help, and at some point, unable to withstand the load with four kids, Liam left the family. He still helps Becky a little financially, but the entire burden of upbringing, development and care fell entirely on the then 23-year-old young mother.
Becky does not complain and does not regret anything, because next to her is her eldest daughter Indiana, who turned 8 this year. She takes care of her younger brothers with pleasure and helps her mother in everything. Both parents and sister Lauren, who moved in with Becky immediately after Liam left, help take care of the children.
8-year-old triplets Roan, Rocco, and Roman still look a lot alike. But if earlier only their mother could distinguish them, because only Becky saw the difference in the color of the moles between the eyes of Rocco and Roman, and Roan Becky found a mole on the leg, which the brothers did not have, now they are distinguished by other close people, because the characters boys are completely different.
Roan grows up to be a real leader and ringleader in all games, Rocco is the calmest and affectionate, and Roman is a big owner. He does not want to share not only toys but also maternal attention with anyone. At the same time, the twins prefer the same toys, so Becky has to multiply all purchases by three.
Boys, following the example of their older sister, love to play with small soft toys in houses, but, of course, they do not forget about scooters and their favorite football, because the famous Liverpool football club plays in their city.
Becky has finally fulfilled her lifelong dream: he is now studying to be a pediatric nurse and plans to work in the same maternity hospital where her babies were born. Most of all, she is grateful to the doctors that everything is fine with her twins. After all, for a mother, her children are always unique, and it is not so important what the DNA test showed there.
