A mum of four at 18! Teenager has her hands full with triplets and a toddler
EMILY ANDREWS 20th July 2009
It's hard enough being a teenage mother with just one child.
So when 17-year-old Sian Robbins was told she was pregnant with triplets - to add to the little boy she already had - she knew she was in for a tough time.
To make things worse, the babies - Taylor, Tyler and Levi - were born 11 weeks premature and all three boys had to stay in hospital in incubators.
Triple treat: Levi, Tyler and Taylor after they were brought home from hospital
Doctors had warned of complications and during the unplanned pregnancy Miss Robbins, now 18, faced the agonising choice of whether to abort one of the triplets to give the other two a better chance of survival.
But she refused, saying: 'I knew that I faced a higher risk of miscarriage but was determined to give all three of them an equal chance.'
Luckily the gamble paid off and seven weeks after their birth all three have been allowed home.
Levi and Tyler weighed just 2lb 6oz after their birth, while Taylor was slightly heavier at 2lb 14oz.
All three were so tiny they could fit into the palm of their mother's hand, but now they weigh 4lb each, to the delight of Miss Robbins and her boyfriend Callum Thomas, 19.

And nary a job between any of them.
Britain is finished.
Girls just wanna have fun....
And we all pay for it.
Goofy girl needs to learn the aspirin birth control device. Hold an aspirin between your knees and don’t let it fall. Works every time.
And she’s not even hot. Pointless.
As long as they’re on community assistance, and have proven they will pop out kids like rabbits, they need to tie her legs together, put a cork up one or both of them, or chop of his dangle - since they are obviously too stupid to get govt-supplied birth control for her.
“Girls just wanna have fun....”
It takes two to tango.
What a comedown.
Let me guess, Sian is on welfare, has been since before the birth of her first child. Thank you LBJ and your so called great society.
...
'I haven't got a job at the moment as I want to stay at home and look after Sian and the kids but I will be looking for a job soon.'
Aww... Isn't that precious...
Oh, I don't know. Perhaps her young yob's hotlessness was even greater than her own. And of course, being a young guy, his need was great ......
LBJ?
I loathe LBJ as much as you do, but this one isn't his fault. The story comes from England.
I haven't got a job at the moment as I want to stay at home and look after Sian and the kids but I will be looking for a job soon.
He needn't bother. The British taxpayers will be the providers.
They hope they’ll be “given” a bigger house.
>>But she refused, saying: ‘I knew that I faced a higher risk of miscarriage but was determined to give all three of them an equal chance.’<<
Hey, she may be stupid and promiscuous and a drain on the economy, but she chose not to murder any of her children — such murder would have certainly been applauded in lefty Britain.
It is a quandary but we need to support her ultimate proper decision while certainly condemning the series of decisions that led to it.
The truism is more true than ever: if you want more of something (such as premarital sex and single moms), subsidize it.
Ba-da boom!---LOL!
C'mon, you have to admit that they are darling! But, it is appalling that she got pregnant with the older child at FIFTEEN. And then she split up with his father. These triplets are from a different BF.
Why is it always a BF? Don't these baby factories ever consider getting married? Or, is these something in the British welfare rules that discourages marriage?

God bless her for not having an abortion as she was evidently urged.
