First-time mother, who fell pregnant with twins six WEEKS after giving birth shares what she's learned in the first year (Details, pics)

She became famous when she fell pregnant with twins just six weeks after giving birth.

And now, nearly one year on from when she had her twins, Sydney mother, Eliza Curby, has shared what having three babies under the age of two has taught her about motherhood.

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia about the lessons she's learned, Eliza, 28, said life has been a 'juggling act' for the past 12 months:'For the first six months, I don't remember much, I was running on empty,' she told FEMAIL.

'But with the one year anniversary coming up, I can finally feel like I've nearly got this.'

'There is so much I've learned over the past year,' she explained. 'The main thing would be to relax my "pre baby" standards I set for myself - like having a clean house or the washing done.

'I have a new-found appreciation for single parents who do this on their own! But I've also learned to not sweat the small stuff - for instance, if the kids have to eat a peanut butter sandwich for dinner some nights, I'm not a lazy mum - I'm just practical. 'At present, Eliza and her partner Ben have got used to doing things in full measures. She went from being a mum of none to a mother of three - Charlie, Jack and Wolfe - in 12 'very short' months.

Having had Charlie in January 2016, Eliza later gave birth to the twins on Christmas Eve 2016 - something which she never expected.

Eliza also said she's learned the importance of the old parenting adage, 'it takes a village':'It really does,' she laughed. 'I owe my sanity to my partner, the grandparents, aunties, uncles and friends. 'While Eliza said that, at times, life with three young children has been a struggle (mainly with transportation), she said that having three kids so young is also hugely rewarding:'Watching the three interact with each other and being able to observe the bond forming, building up slowly as the twins begin to "get it". They love each other and I can see it.

'However, she has no plans to have any more children:'We don't plan on more babies for the future. I had always imagined having four, so I'm not opposed to the idea,' she said.

'But I'm loving our life as it is. I feel like we've got the perfect little family.'

Eliza made the news when she fell pregnant with her twins just after her first baby, Charlie, was born.
