When IUI Leads to Triplets: Todd’s Journey to Fatherhood
In this episode of Triplet Double, host Isaiah Hernandez sits down with Todd Balkin, a triplet father from Dallas, Texas, to talk about his family’s incredible journey through IUI (intrauterine insemination) and what it’s really like raising three little ones at once. Todd opens up about how he and his wife navigated infertility, the emotional ups and downs of IUI, and the shock of finding out they were expecting triplets.
The two fathers dive deep into conversations about high-risk pregnancies, NICU experiences, building trust with doctors, and what life looks like after the toddler years. Todd also shares advice for couples exploring fertility treatments—emphasizing community, communication, and asking the right questions.
Whether you’re considering IUI, are a parent of multiples, or just love hearing real parenting stories, this heartfelt episode offers both comfort and perspective from someone who’s lived it.
