Updated | By Lifestyle Reporter
Jolene and Andrew Mckee from New York have welcomed their third set of twin babies. That means that the mom has had six babies in five years!
According to the couple's doctor, he has not seen anything like this in 25 years.
Jolene says that it has been a blessing to have six babies from only three pregnancies.

The couple has Peyton and Paige, aged 5, Abigail and Andrew, aged 3, and now Aiden and Jaiden.
About her pregnancies, Jolene says: ‘'I feel so lucky that we have all three combinations too, girl twins, boy-girl twins and now our boy twins. It worked out perfectly.
"Before I fell pregnant with the eldest set of twins, Peyton and Paige, I had previously suffered a miscarriage, and three months later, I discovered I was pregnant again.

"I was so scared to go to the doctors for the scan after going through the pain of miscarrying."
Jolene is able to produce so many twins because she has an overactive uterus, which causes her to drop two eggs at a time.
