The O’Shea family from Milltown have been blessed with three daughters all born on the same date, January 2, two years apart in 2007, 2009 and 2011.

Their mother, Stella, said “It certainly wasn't planned. You couldn't have planned it…They were all natural births and they were all late. It was just the way it worked out that I ended up getting pregnant in March and giving birth in January."

Mike, the girls father said the old daughters are delighted at the arrival of Holly who was born this year. He said “They know Holly was born on their birthday and they're very excited about the new baby and just can't leave her alone...We're delighted to show them off. It's nice to have a bit of good news for a change.

"We've been trying to get in touch with the Guinness Book of Records, but we've had no joy yet on that.”

Here’s the TV3 news feature on the family:

HAVING TRIED to avoid giving each other proper Christmas presents, this lovely couple have to settle for cheating their girls out of Birthday presents. Mike is well known in Milltown for his winning smile - especially broad around the end of March beginning of May. A Garda spokesman said "...we does have to be more vigilant about that time as there is a danger of the sun bouncing off his smiling teeth and blinding the drivers of them motor-car yolks. We do be calling it "The O'Shay Shine Effect" and let it go at that as Mike - the poor gossoon - is sure to be busy in the saddle that night, an’ anyway, shur, ‘tis only once a year! Anyway, God bless them all and may they grow big and strong 'til they are fit enough to emigrate t’America".
