She had everybody fooled for months.
When 16-year-old Julia* told her boyfriend Jordan Wyrabkiewicz she was pregnant, he pledged to support her the best he could.
“I was excited, don’t get me wrong, but I was scared,” Wyrabkiewicz, also 16, told Fox2Detroit. “I started looking for jobs the best I could. I was ready to donate all my time.”
Julia’s family were surprised at the news — and never more so than when they learned she was expecting triplets.
For months, Michigan teenager Julia showed around ultrasounds of her unborn babies and accepted donations from a church, a not-for-profit group and an online support forum called Moms of Triplets.
Fox 2 Detroit reports she even attended a baby shower thrown for her by relatives, and told people she had named her three unborn children Ivan, Alice and Isabella.

But when her due date came and went, Julia’s story began to crumble.
According to Newser, her boyfriend and his mother became suspicious, particularly since they couldn’t confirm who the girl’s doctor was.
Eventually, a concerned Ohio member of Moms of Triplets contacted the family — and the full story of Julia’s deception unfolded.
As the Moms of Triplets member pointed out, Julia’s ultrasound photos looked identical to those sold at a disturbing website called FakeABaby.com.

Apart from all the obvious OMGs with this story...
The father of the babies was going to "donate" his time. DONATE?!?! You have got to be joking. If he thought it was about donating time when you have a baby, lucky they didnt reproduce.
He is 16 - he obviously doesn't have a way with words! I can't believe you focused on him saying 'donate' when this young lady just exploited and lied to LOTS of people as well as him!! I think that's the story here....
Hence my "apart from all the obvious OMGs with this story!"
Being a teen mum myself, that little word stood out. A lot.
Actually, I also am struggling to believe that her family are that slow to cotton on to SOMETHING not being wrong or suspicious about the whole thing.
She obviously didn't think that one through.....
Yeah as the boy's shirt says, 'it seemed like a good idea at the time' lol
