The youngest ottoman consorts to become mothers
As we don't have precise dates of birth for consorts until the XIX century (and sometimes even after that), answering this question is not easy at all.
I have found that:
Gülcemâl Kadın, the mother of Mehmed V, was 14 years old when she gave birth to her eldest child, Fatma Sultan.
Nesrin Hanım, another consort of Abdülmecid I, was 16 years old when she gave birth to Şehzade Mehmed Ziyaeddin.
Şayeste Hanım was 15 years old when she gave birth to Şehzade Abdullah.
Ayşe Serfiraz Hanım too was 15 when she gave birth to Şehzade Osman Safiyeddin.
Edadil Kadın, consort of Sultan Abdülaziz, was 17 when she gave birth to Şehzade Mahmud Celaleddin.
Gevheri Kadın too was 17 when she gave birth to Esma Sultan.
Mezide Mestan Kadın, consort of Abdülhamid II, was 16 when she gave birth to Şehzade Mehmed Burhaneddin
Mihrengiz Kadın, consort of Mehmed V, was 17 when she gave birth to Şehzade Ömer Hilmi
Şehsuvar Kadın, consort of Caliph Abdülmecid II, was 17 years old when she give birth to Şehzade Ömer Faruk

She also made some paintings which she later gave to Bezmialem Valide Sultan and Servetseza Kadınefendi. Dürrinev had long blonde hair and hazel eyes; when the future Sultan Abdülaziz first saw her, he immediately asked Servetseza Kadınefendi to let him marry his lady-in-waiting.

Şehzade Ibrahim and Şehzade Selim (7.10.1692) to Ahmed II and Haseki Rabia Sultan

Şehzade Mehmed Nizameddin and Şehzade Mehmed Vamik (19.4.1850) to Abdülmecid I
Şehzade Ahmed Nureddin and Şehzade Mehmed Bedreddin (22.6.1901) to Abdülhamid II and Behice Hanım
Şehzade Ahmed Tevhid and Fatma Gevheri Sultan (2.12.1904) to Şehzade Mehmed Seyfeddin and Nervaliter Hanım
It’s possible that there were others that were not recorded. 
Triplets? No, sorry, I have never heard of triplets in the Dynasty. Giving birth to three children at the time would have been an extraordinary feature so if nobody recorded it, it never happened.
