Cleveland, OH (AHN) - A 56-year-old surrogate grandmother and the triplets she gave birth last month for her daughter are all doing well at an Ohio hospital.

Jaci Dalenberg of Wooster in northeast Ohio was interviewed at the Hillcrest Hospital in the Cleveland suburb Mayfield Heights Tuesday. "I'm fine. I feel great," Dalenberg told the Associate Press. "Knowing the outcome, I would do it over again, but ... I'm not going to do it again."

Her identical twins Gabriella Claire and Carmina Ann and their sister Elizabeth Jacilyn are also well at the hospital despite being born two months premature on Oct. 11, Dalenberg's daughter Kim Coseno, told ABC's "Good Morning America" also on Tuesday.

Coseno, who has two daughters with a previous husband, could no longer bear a child after a hysterectomy. Dalenberg offered to act as her daughter's surrogate and an egg from Coseno's ovaries was fertilized and implanted on her grandmother's uterus, a procedure known as in vitro fertilization.
