Re: Mother of Octuplets has SIX other children.

Seeing as how this is California, I can only imagine the HUGE monthly checks this lady will be receiving. While actual workers are getting IOU's she'll be swimming in green.

I think the assumption she took fertility drugs all on her own is highly possible.

Did you notice, they are Iranian, they could have gotten treated in some unconventional way and not in a reputable clinic.

Re: Mother of Octuplets has SIX other children.

How can you take fertility drugs "on your own?" Don't you need a prescription?

Suleman sought fertility treatment and was implanted with numerous embryos last year and according to the mother, they all happened to take. Throughout the pregnancy, doctors thought there were seven babies. The surprise eighth baby shocked the massive delivery team that was assembled at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Bellflower, California.

Medical ethicists and fertility specialists were quick to share their arguments against the dangerous practice of implanting more than two embryo at one time. The mother was given counseling on selective reduction early on in her pregnancy but decided against terminating any of the babies.

It said the father (or grandfather) was going back to his native home, Iraq.

Re: Mother of Octuplets has SIX other children.

I'm wondering if she had the treatment in another country, and then came back here to have them.

Re: Mother of Octuplets has SIX other children.

Let's see. Basic math!

Iranians, Moslems and many other cultures have 6-12 children. No problem.

Americans, 2.5

How long till we are literally birthed out of existence?

Somethings wrong here!

I am not speaking against large families, I have 6 children of my own. But many cultures know that if you are going to survive as a culture you must have a lot of children.

I saw an article about a Jew in the Golon heights recently. He said that most of the settlers in the heights were young families that had between 6-12 children. He said that was the norm!

Furthermore he went on and said "These families were doing what they could for the furtherance of the Jewish state".

That is why this family does not mind to have 8 at a time. It is looking long range.
