And you thought your kids were hard work? Mum has THREE sets of twins naturally within just 26 MONTHS
The odds of this happening are one in 88,000... and the busy 20-year-old has five kids under the age of three
YOUNG kids can be a handful, as this mum who has FIVE children all under the age of three knows all too well.
Danesha Couch, from Kansas City in Missouri, gave birth to THREE sets of twins in just a couple of years – two of them with her fiancé Jeffrey Pressler, who she plans to marry in September.
Danesha releases two eggs at once, which are both ready to be fertilised.
This is how she has managed to conceive the miracle babies without any medical treatment – despite the odds of doing this being just one in 88,000.
Explaining that she doesn’t mind the sleepless nights and piles of laundry, Danesha added: “I love babies.”
Her eldest child, two-year-old Danarias, is a twin too.
Sadly his brother Desmond died shortly after birth – due to complications from being born prematurely.
Danesha recalled: “That was a pretty bad time.”
She also has one-year-old twins Delilah and Davina, and two tiny babies who were born last month.
The youngsters spent three weeks in neo-natal intensive care, but have now been allowed home to be cared for by their busy mum.
Dr Elizabeth Wickstrom, of Shawnee Mission Medical Center, told WDAF: “But the fact that you’ve ever done it before makes you more likely to do it again.”
Apparently, women of African heritage are more likely to have multiple sets of twins.
Danesha said: “My regrets would be timing but I’m really happy that I can even create babies or have life, because some women can’t do that.”
Danesha and Jeffrey have said they are now not planning on adding to their brood for at least 10 years.
