[Opinions] Re: two sets of triplets & one single...
in reply to a message by Agata
Assuming I did not live in Argentina:
DS: Ashley Jacob Evren
DD/DD/DD: Helena Ruby Adrienne / Avril Sofia Imogen / Rosalie Noelani Maude
DD/DD/DD: Anna Evangeline Eleanor / Carys Lillian Margaret / Grace Stella Scarlett
:P Too bad I don't get to use my boys names as much in this. I have a harder time with the girls.
But yes, that is sad. What are the odds of conceiving natural triplets twice?

That can't be right.
The odds of having natural triplets are 1:80,000 - I know that because my brother had a set.

I think it's actually about 1:8,000 - I've read that in multiple sources, including this:

That's where I got it.
Found the odds: 1 in 16,000
