Last Wednesday, Allison Penn gave birth to identical triplets at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, New York. Penn was impregnated with just one embryo which split in half and then one of the split halves split in half again.
"This is the first one we're aware of in the literature in the country in which they only put back one embryo" and a woman gave birth to triplets, said Dr. Victor Klein. "Most people put back two or three embryos and you just never know."
An obstetrician estimated this rare birth might happen just once in 200 million births.
It's the BPP's Ramble.
