A 55-year-old woman has become the oldest woman to give birth to triplets, but in fact they are grandchildren.
6-year-old Kim, daughter of Jaycee Dahlenberg, has two children from a previous marriage, but really wants to have more children with her 30-year-old husband Joe, whom she married in 2005.Jaycee Dahlenberg bravely played the role of a surrogate mother for her daughter Kim, who was struggling with infertility after hysterectomy of the uterus for cysts and uterine fibroids 7 years ago. The couple went through two failed adoptions and had to consider surrogacy and foreign adoption before her mother, Jaycee, entered her life.
Her daughter’s search for new children was impossible. and she decided to do it for her daughter. Thanks to numerous interventions by a doctor with the method of in vitro fertilization, and in the end she succeeded.
The head of the hospital is engaged in surrogacy and is sure that she will be able to give birth to a child, despite her age. Kim underwent an intravenous injection at the Cleveland Clinic, where the eggs from the remaining ovaries were fertilized with her husband Joe’s sperm.
Doctors performed the surrogacy procedure for the first time to another woman in her 40s who was not related by blood to her biological mother, but they said Jaycee was «in perfect shape for her age.» Her grandmother can take part in the pregnancy for her daughter. ‘
It took three attempts before Kim’s eggs were successfully implanted into her mother’s egg. But the film is far from over when an ultrasound at 10 weeks of pregnancy shows three babies, not one as expected.
After a long period of time to preserve the fetus, she finally gave birth to three children. On October 11, two months before the due date, Jasi was forced to have an emergency Caesarean section because one of the twins died of starvation in the womb. each baby weighs less than 3 pounds at one-minute intervals during in vitro fertilization.
Three girls with three names-Ellie, Gabriella and Carmina – underwent an emergency caesarean section and were placed in intensive care, but all three survived.Jaycee told Closer magazine: «When the kids were born, I was thrilled. The hardest thing was to leave them in the hospital when I was discharged four days after giving birth.
She added: «I don’t want to take care of the children alone.
— I have raised four beautiful daughters.
— My mother’s time is up. I’m their grandmother and I’m not going to get pregnant again! ”
«It’s the best thing a mother can do for her daughter,» Kim said.
— Of course, we will tell all the girls how they were born — I want them to know what a great thing their grandmothers did for us.
— I want them to know how special they are, and everything about their unusual beginning in life.
