Northampton General Hospital welcomes triplets!

We were delighted to meet three of our youngest patients today, 17-day-old triplets Lester, Kasey and Ella-Rose who are being cared for on our Gosset ward.

Mum Hannah told us all three babies are doing really well and she's looking forward to taking them home soon. 
It's quite unusual to have triplets, but these babies are even more special because they are non-identical and each had their own sacs and placentas.

Weighing in at 4 lbs 12 ounces, Kasey was the first triplet born, followed by sister Ella-Rose who weighed 4 lbs 1 ounce. Brother Lester came last, weighing 4 lb 5.

A huge well done to all our #TeamNGH heroes who played their part in looking after Hannah and her babies.
