Grandma holding Gabriella

Not only has a 56-year-old Ohio woman given birth to triplets, but they’re her own granddaughters.

Jaci Dalenberg of Wooster carried the babies as a surrogate for her daughter, Kim Coseno. The two identical twins and their sister were born by Caesarean section Oct. 11 at the Cleveland Clinic’s Hillcrest Hospital in Mayfield Heights and are still in the hospital’s care. They were more than two months premature and each weighed less than three pounds.

A Cleveland Clinic news release says infants and grandmother are all doing well.

According to a Clinic spokesman, Dalenberg offered herself as a surrogate when Kim Coseno and her husband, Joe, were waiting to adopt. The couple used in vitro fertilization, and embryos were implanted in Dalenberg’s uterus.

Uh, O.K.. Gonna lead to some confused birthday parties.

Here’s a link to the family’s blog. Seem like wonderful folks and I wish them the best.

    Glad it worked out this time. In cases where the babies ended up with developmental problems the state shouldn’t have to pay.

    Science has pushed past good sense.

    Glad to see the right wing nuts care so much about family.

    So we ran out of kids that need adopted?

    I don’t mean to be troll but I can’t help thinking that every time I read a story about doctors creating more babies.
