3 sisters give birth on 3 straight days

ST. CHARLES, Mo. - The first surprise was when three Warrenton sisters discovered they were pregnant and due around the same time. But the bigger surprise came last week when their babies - Sophia, Jack and Kara - were born on three consecutive days at the same hospital in the St. Louis suburb of St. Charles.
"I've had sisters deliver within a week or so of each other, but nothing like this," said Dr. Evelyne Schuetz, who monitored the sisters' pregnancies. Her medical partner offered to deliver the third, but Schuetz said no way.
"I said, 'I've delivered the two, I have to deliver the third.'"
One sister was quoted as saying, "I am glad we don't live in Southern Maryland or the headline might have read, 'Three sisters give birth over three consecutive days all to the same bebe daddy'.
