In this episode of Triplet Double, Isaiah talks with AJ Hakala, a triplet dad from Wyoming whose path to parenthood included early pregnancy losses, a rare mono-tri identical triplet pregnancy, an emergency cerclage, and weeks spent near a Denver NICU as his daughters arrived early.

AJ walks through the reality of navigating a high-risk pregnancy, the NICU, and bringing home three preemies on oxygen. The episode then goes deeper as Isaiah and AJ shift into a conversation about nutrition, which is AJ's educational and professional background through his work in biochemistry and supplement formulation.

Together they explore:

• What a high-risk triplet pregnancy looks like
• NICU life and the early months at home
• How nutrition, supplements, and formula choices played a role in their journey
• How parents can research products, identify red flags, and avoid misinformation

This conversation is not medical advice. It is a personal discussion meant to help parents ask better questions and feel more informed. If you are part of the multiples community or curious about the science behind early childhood nutrition, this episode offers a rare and practical perspective.

Disclaimer: This episode is not medical advice. It is a personal discussion with a professional who also happens to be a triplet dad. Always consult your healthcare provider before making decisions about nutrition, supplements, pregnancy, or pediatric care.

He also opens up about how insurance and employer fertility benefits played a crucial role in making it all possible.

This conversation gives a real look into what families go through behind the scenes of IVF and preterm birth — the uncertainty, the humor, and the gratitude that comes after.
