Becki Allen, a Liverpool mother, received an astonishing shock when she learned she was expecting triplets. Even more surprising, these were identical triplets, a one-in-200-million rarity. Her pregnancy had been challenging, with severe headaches, prompting an early ultrasound revealing the triplets.
The boys, named Roman, Rocco, and Rohan, were delivered prematurely at 31 weeks, weighing between 3 and 5 pounds, and spent a few weeks in intensive care.
Amazingly, all three boys made a full recovery and were discharged a month later. Though doctors initially believed they weren’t identical, DNA testing confirmed their genetic identity, a remarkable rarity. Becki shared that while they look the same, the boys have distinct personalities and subtle differences, like birthmarks.
Indiana, their older sister, adores her three little brothers, with no signs of jealousy.
The family faces the challenges of raising triplets, including the cost of diapers, but the Allen family’s love and uniqueness shine through.
