Kaylie and Brandon DeShane of Norwood, New York, are the proud parents of triplets<\/a> who have not only beaten the odds, but they\u2019ve also set a Guinness World Record. Cian, Declan, and Rowan DeShane have been awarded the title of\u00a0longest interval between births of triplets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most triplets share the same birthday, but these remarkable siblings were not only born on different days and years, but in different decades<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

After hoping to become pregnant for four years, doctors suggested that the DeShanes try in vitro fertilization (IVF) due to infertility issues caused by Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS. IVF comes with numerous risks<\/a>, to both mothers and babies. At her six-week ultrasound, Kaylie was told both of the embryos had implanted, and one embryo had split, which meant she was not only carrying one baby, but also a set of identical twins, all at the same time. Kaylie cried because she said “the IVF clinic told us we couldn’t carry three.” The babies’ due date was April 26, 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n
