Woman Rushed To Hospital With “Kidney Stone” Pain Gives Birth To Triplets
South Dakota momDanette Giltzthought she and her husband,Austin,were done having kids after their son and daughter were born. So when she started having stomach pain, she assumed it was kidney stones (which she had before) and rushed to the hospital for treatment. Imagine her surprise when doctors told her she was actually 34 weeks pregnant and going into labor …and about to have twins!
It gets crazier. Glitz got a bigger surprise during her c-section when docs delivered not two, butthreebabies. Life changed forever for the Giltz family in the course of about four minutes, when they went from being a family of four to a family of seven. Mom and babies are doing well, despite not knowing the babies were on the way. Dad named his triplets - two girls and a boy -Blaze,Gypsy, andNikkiand they are each healthy and weighed around four-pounds at birth.
"You don't ever see triplets being conceived naturally, let alone going 34 weeks without knowing," Danette says. “I go to the doctor's thinking I'll have surgery for kidney stones and end up going into labor with a C-section that night. It's crazy.”

There’s A Tool To Predict Chance Of Rain On Your Wedding Day
When it comes to a wedding, you can plan pretty much everything, except the weather. No one wants rain on their wedding day, even if some people say it’s good luck. But with most wedding dates set months or a year in advance, there hasn’t been a way to predict the weather forecast … until now.
TheMonsoon wedding calculatoruses data from the past 86 years to establish which days have historically been the driest and which ones are most likely to get a downpour. All you have to do is put in your wedding date, or the date of the nuptials you’re attending as a guest, as well as the location and it will predict how likely it is to rain based on the weather in previous years.
Is it 100% accurate? Of course not, but it could help ease the fears of brides-to-be so they don’t feel the need to check the weather forecast hundreds of times. And even if you’re just a wedding guest, it’s nice to know what to plan for, so you can do your hair - or not - accordingly.

The Average Cost of a Wedding Is Basically the Price of a New Car
Weddings are known for costing a small fortune, and according to The Knot's recent Real Weddings Study, that's not changing anytime soon. After surveying over 14,000 couples who got married in 2018, they found that couples are currently spending an average of $33,931 on their big day, and that doesn't even include honeymoon expenses. So, what makes the average cost of a wedding so lofty? For starters, The Knot found that the bulk of this price comes from the reception venue, which averages a whopping $15,439. This means the venue may eat up nearly half of a couple's average wedding budget. The next most expensive thing for the big day is the engagement ring, which on average costs $5,680, followed by the reception band, which averages $4,247. The least expensive costs are smaller details like the favors ($245), hairstylist ($123), and makeup artist ($102).
