Drilling in Vienna: Sensational birth in St. Josef-Hospital!

Drilling in Vienna: Sensational birth in St. Josef-Hospital!

An impressive miracle of nature occurred in the St. Josef hospital in Vienna-Hietzing in 2020: triplets were born for the first time. A girl and two boys saw the light of day by Caesarean section in the 32nd week of pregnancy, which is a medical sensation. A pregnancy usually takes about 40 weeks, but with triplets it is common practice to get them earlier, as they often do not receive enough nutrients, as Dr. Andreas Brandstetter from the hospital. Despite the early birth, the triplets weigh almost five kilograms and both the babies and the mother are well, but need some support such as incubators and probe nutrition to stabilize.

While the doctors set up a medical record in Vienna, another family is particularly impressed. Bettina and Muhamed from Vienna are happy about their triplets Levian, Emilian and Damian, who were born four years ago. As her mother reported, these little fighters were born as premature babies in the 7th week of pregnancy and had to spend three months in the hospital. Thanks to the support of the "today" Christkinds and Novomatic, the four siblings are now getting new beds for better sleep. "We are very grateful for the 500 euros that help us to renovate the whole children's room," said Bettina, pleased because the place in her home is slowly becoming scarce. Her eldest son Adrian also celebrated his fifth birthday on the same day.

These two stories from Vienna not only illuminate the hearts of people, but also show the diversity of life - from medical challenges to family happiness. In a world, the likelihood of getting triplets is 1 to 3,840, the happiness of these families stands out all the more. This excitement, both in the hospital and at home, tells of the will to live, hope and joy in every challenge.
