New York mother, 37, gives birth to her THIRD set of natural twins

A New York mother has welcomed her third set of natural twins, making her and her husband parents of 10. 

Kimberly Alarcon, 37, gave birth to her fraternal twin daughters, Kenzy and Kenzley, via her first cesarean section at Westchester Medical Center on Monday. The odds of having three sets of spontaneous twins is about 1 in 200,000, according to Today.

‘Our home is full of love,’ she told the outlet. ‘We have good days, we have bad days, just like any other family. We just take it one day at a time.’

Alacron had three individual children before she became pregnant with her first set of twins,’ News 12 reported. Three years later, she had another set. 

In 2021, she learned she was expecting triplets, but she miscarried one of the babies early in her pregnancy and gave birth to another set of twins, Kenzy and Kenzley. 

She and her husband, John, are also raising one of their nephews, and now have a total of 10 children following their latest arrivals.

The couple’s youngest twins join Brittney, 17, Sarah, 13, Hunter, 10, Zachary, 6, Zoey, 6, Olivia, 4, Oliver, 4, and King, 3. 

Alacron is no stranger to having a full house. Her mother had a total of 18 children — 10 biological and eight adopted. She told Today that they also had friends coming over to their home all of the time when she was growing up.

‘Sometimes we had 30 kids over at once,’ she recalled. 

The mom has continued the tradition of having a house full of kids with her detective husband, who grew up with one brother and always wanted a big family. 

Being over the age of 30, being taller or heavier, and having a family history of twins on the mother’s side are all factors that increase the odds of having twins without fertility drugs, according to Medical News Today. 

‘But three sets of twins back-to-back without medication or any intervention is highly unusual,’ Dr. Angela Silber, chief of maternal fetal medicine at Westchester Medical Center, told Today. ‘It’s pretty incredible.’ 

Alacron introduced her newborn daughters on Instagram on Thursday, the day the family was slated to leave the hospital. She shared a sweet photo of the girls fast asleep on a hospital bed wearing matching peach onesies.

‘They are our last addition and made our tribe a solid 10. They were born 4/25/22,’ she wrote. ‘My very first cesarean. They were breached and it was a difficult pregnancy but thank God that we made it.’

The mom shared that Kenzy is older by three minutes, and she weighed 4 pounds, 15 ounces when she was born. Her little sister, Kenzley, was slightly heavier at 5 pounds, 9 ounces. 

‘Kenzy and Kenzley started their journey as a trio but unfortunately while at the doctor’s office I miscarried who I believe was my boy Kent,’ she continued. ‘God gives us what he knows we can handle so yes we will love him and remember him.’

Alacron’s daughters are only four days old, but she shared that they are already developing their own personalities. 

‘So far Kenzy is our milk guzzler,’ she said. ‘She plays no games with her feedings while Kenzley is taking her place as the youngest and baby of our tribe.’

Alacron added that Kenzley is ‘too serious’ and their ‘little spoiled girl,’ explaining: ‘[She] loves to be held at such a young age even while she’s asleep.’
