I had a nursery for each of the mothers. Spare bedrooms doubled as nurseries so I kept them separate. Even though they looked alike, they have differences in them and we were able to tell them apart. Plus when they are born, we mark differences, like shade of tan/gold or maybe a white patch, or by the face....we do this and then weigh them daily and record it.

When they got to about 7 weeks old, I'd let the babies play together and then when mommies came back in, they went to their own nursery.

Like I said it was a crazy time and I wouldn't want to do 3 again, 2 maybe but never 3. I ended up keeping two of the girls.
