The triplets' arrival came nearly four months before their due date.
“I’m just going to share a little bit of what’s been going on at my house and why I’m kinda a little late on things,” Paula, 71, explained in a Facebook video shared Oct. 27.
At the time of filming the video, Paula said that the triplets were “a week old today.”
“Today’s Tuesday. They were born last Tuesday and they weighed in, two of them, Linton and Olivia came in at 1 lb. 12 oz. and Amelia, my little namesake, she was the hefty one at 2 lbs.,” she explained.
Although Paula assured that her three new grandchildren are “all doing well,” the infant trio will remain in the hospital through the New Year.
According to a photo on Claudia’s Instagram Story, she revealed that the couple did IUI, which is intrauterine insemination.
“Intrauterine insemination (IUI) — a type of artificial insemination — is a procedure for treating infertility,” according toMayo Clinic. “Sperm that have been washed and concentrated are placed directly in your uterus around the time your ovary releases one or more eggs to be fertilized.”

“26 weeks pregnant with triplets vs. 2 weeks postpartum 👶🏻 Although I couldn’t reach my 50-60lbs weight gain goal because my babies decided to arrive way too soon I’m proud of the 36lbs I gained while trying to fatten them up!” said Claudia, who revealed that she’s “lost 22lbs and have 14 lbs left to reach my pre-pregnancy weight.”
“He makes everything so much easier, he puts things into perspective and lifts me up every time I’m feeling down,” she wrote. “Thank you God for another day of life!”
