Well, three sisters from Ohio state in the United States (US) defied the odds by giving birth on the same day in the same health facility with the same obstetrician overseeing their deliveries.
Mansfield News Journal reported Daneesha Haynes, Ariel Williams and Ashley Haynes all gave birth on July 3, 2020, at OhioHealth Mansfield Hospital within a four-and-a-half-hour span. “It was a blessing. It is amazing. This kind of blew everybody away,” Daneesha Haynes said. According to the report, all three sisters had their deliveries induced by Edroy McMillan who delivered all three babies. Daneesha was not due until July 23, 2020.
Williams was the first to give birth that day, naming her over 3kgs daughter Sincere.
Ashley followed with her over 2kgs son Adrion. Daneesha completed the trifecta with daughter Emrie, who weighed in at over 1kgs. “I was due July 23, 2020, but I was high risk. She (daughter) had to be taken three weeks ahead. They said smaller babies can not handle the birth process as well,” Daneesha said.
In choosing the name Emrie for her daughter, Daneesha said she liked different names and wanted her daughter to stand out. Little Emrie had to undergo a few tests before she was allowed to go home. She joked about hospital staff getting the sisters mixed up when they came for their frequent appointments.
Among the sisters, they now have nine children. Ashley, 27, has five.
The sisters’ mother, Deborah Ware, joked that there would be no extra children at the newborns’ future birthday parties. “I do not know what kind of party we will have. We will party for two days straight,” Daneesha said.
