Pregnant with 12?

Post by CT_Michele »

Here we go again! My husband read online this morning that a woman in Tunisia is expecting 12! Of course lots of speculation, but no details yet. Just thought I would share the article. One article I read said there is a 1 in 100 chance that any will survive. They also say she is expecting 6 boys and 6 girls, which makes me think she must be at least 16 weeks along, or PGD was done...but could you imagine there would really be a Dr. out there that would put that would transfer that many??

Crazy...any opinions from anyone?

OH Yes, lets get pregnant with 12 children. The odds of any of them to making it to birth is slim but we will get lots of media attention. BRILLIANT!!!!

I just don't get this but everyone is different with their beliefs.

She must want her own reality show.

Might have been IUI. Whatever it was, her doctor made a huge blunder.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

HUGE mistake! I saw the Nadyia Suleman special advertised on Fox for Wednesday night. I am sure I will watch, even though I don't want to, I am really curious to see what her or her dr's might say.

I know bey...it sucks...one woman blessed with 12 that might not make it, and thousands of us ladies, desperate for just one...seems like a cruel world sometimes.

It is soooooo annoying!! It gets me so mad! All us ladies on here want is ONE baby and she's been blessed with 12! It's so unfair! And people wonder why we can be bitter at times eh! It's very selfish of the parents to be to think it's right to for them to keep all 12, they obviously aren't thinking of the babies at all!

I can't say I am not happy to hear it is a hoax. Although being pregnant with 12 is highly unlikely, it is possible and would have been very dangerous for the mother and babies.

As far as the woman goes, I hope she gets the psychological help she needs.

Seriously it's a joke? That's sick. Why on earth would anyone joke about something like that. I agree with you Michelle, she seriously needs help!
