Mother Jessica Watts, 29, from Cheshire, has released heartwarming footage of her babies, Sonny, Sidney and Betsy, being born to mark their first birthday.
Jessica and her partner, Will Avery, 33, who works offshore as a welder, dreamed of adding a second child to their family and having a little brother or sister for their son, Billy, four.
Despite both having twins in their families, the couple was left speechless when they discovered they were expecting naturally ᴄᴏɴᴄᴇɪᴠᴇᴅ triplets.
The family was delighted to find out they were having two boys and a girl after originally thinking they were all male.
Their little ones, Sonny, Sidney and Betsy, were born on March 20th, 2018 via C-sᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ at 34 weeks, weighing 3lbs 15oz, 4lbs 2oz and 4lbs 3oz respectively.
The incredible video of their birth shows the children being born via C-sᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ.
As the babies are born, Will can be heard telling Jessica, ‘Oh, they’re gorgeous’.
As the doctors drop the drapes, they lift the babies up so that the parents are able to see them for the first time.
One of the doctors asks for the babies’ names, and Jessica can be heard naming them immediately before thanking the doctors.
The triplets have been keeping their parents on their toes and will celebrate their first birthday with a day out at the zoo and a joint party.
Mum-of-four Jessica, a care assistant from Warrington, Cheshire, said, “It was an incredible surprise to find out we were expecting triplets, and they’ve brought so much love and laughter to our lives since their arrival.”
