She took to TikTok to share a video of her morning routine, and the mom has since gone viral.
The mother, who goes by the name Triple Plus 3 on social media, start by getting up and getting dressed, before the babies and children get up.
Now that your triplets can feed themselves, mom will give them a bottle of milk as soon as they wake up.
While they have the bottles, she stays in the room with them and chooses outfits for when they finish their drinks.
After her triplets finish their drinks, she will leave them in separate cribs and give them each a toy to play with.
This is when she will help prepare the other children, while also making her son’s bed for him.
Her other two daughters will be ready, so mom will just need to fix her hair and bed.
The children then go downstairs while she dresses and prepares the triplets.
After that, the three babies will come down and she will put them in their chairs for breakfast.
To occupy her 11-month-olds, she will give them each a spinning toy.
Her kids have a cereal dispenser, so they all pick the cereal they want and mom puts the milk in afterwards.
The triplets will eat some porridge and the mother will also add a bag of fruit.
Dress up
She says: “They love this combination and will eat everything.”
The mother explained that this is a new addition to her morning routine, as previously they ate breakfast at 10am, but now they eat breakfast at 8:30am as they eat three solid meals a day.
Once breakfast is over, mom will make sure all the dishes are clean.
Now that it’s time to leave, she’ll make sure the kids have their shoes on and ready to get in the car.
First, the mother will place the triplets in their strollers and then have the older children stand next to the little ones while she locks up the house and makes sure she has everything.

The mother replied: “A father, we were married and I am not going to get a divorce. I’ve worked all my adult life and I’m still working, just coming off maternity leave and taking some annual leave.”
