wow congrats to her!
Jane C. Jan 27, 2009, 8:53am EST
Maybe we should start a collection for diapers!
Dusty Hubbard Jan 27, 2009, 8:54am EST
I heard this, this morning. They thought she was only carrying 7 babies, but found #8 as they were delivering the others. I'm glad to know that they are all doing well!
DIANE D. Jan 27, 2009, 8:55am EST
Yes, I would say, I just heard this on CNN, The first to survive. I am sure they will get lots of help, lets hope do, in all departments!
DIANE D. Jan 27, 2009, 8:55am EST
What a surprize!
Nancy Biri Jan 27, 2009, 8:56am EST

wow. I can't even begin to imagine.
Kim M. Jan 27, 2009, 9:03am EST
holy buckets, shes gonna go through a few diapers!
I read this this morning. Just the thought of 8 babies makes my headache worse. I'm happy for the parents and little ones. They seem to be doing well.
Mary Standard Jan 27, 2009, 9:18am EST
This is a miracle...totally amazing!!! =0)
John S. (arizona) Jan 27, 2009, 9:19am EST
Did you ever see the show "Jon and Kate plus Eight" on TV? It's kind of neat how they handle thier kids, experiences and all. They had twins, and then 6 at one time next.
Ashley Prince Jan 27, 2009, 9:32am EST
Oh my goodness? That's quite a bit!! :) My favorite show is Jon and Kate plus Eight. It's crazy how they keep it all together!
Chris L Jan 27, 2009, 9:34am EST
Congratulations to her....I guess. She should get a lifetime supply of valium.
Lin B. Jan 27, 2009, 10:07am EST
WoW~ wow
Infinity M. Jan 27, 2009, 10:23am EST
i don't think i could handle that - the thought is overwhelming 2 say the least
Elaine S. Jan 27, 2009, 10:45am EST
Wow!
Col. George W. Jan 27, 2009, 11:03am EST
My God can you feature having all the work taking care and the expenses of feeding that bunch. I hope her husband has a really really good job. They will need at least two helpers in the home at all times.
ashley a. Jan 27, 2009, 11:47am EST
lol thats crazy, i heard she wants to breastfeed all of them, good luck to her
Debra H. Jan 27, 2009, 11:51am EST
I saw this on the news last night, they thought there were only going to be 7 and surprise there were 8!

huge congrats to her
David S. Jan 27, 2009, 2:15pm EST
I heard that she birthed all of the babies in like 60 seconds or something like that, I'm sure it had to be longer, but crazy nonetheless!
Rose H. Jan 27, 2009, 3:38pm EST
That's insane.
C C. Jan 27, 2009, 4:15pm EST

Maureen W. Jan 27, 2009, 7:28pm EST
That is too many! Only 10 more and she's in league with the Duggars!
Linda T. Jan 27, 2009, 9:14pm EST
Incredible. I wish her luck with them.
Jan S. Jan 27, 2009, 10:09pm EST
Yikes! Big families are nice, but the kids are usually different ages. Eight babies sounds like a lot of work.
Jen G. Jan 27, 2009, 10:51pm EST
OMG! Eight babies? I can't imagine it.
Vic Needs Coffee Jan 28, 2009, 2:01am EST
Wow.
Nancy O. Jan 28, 2009, 2:49am EST
yes and being in SoCal our local news is all a twitter ....last night it was the big story then this morning and again on the evening and late news .....it is just amazing to think of that many babies kicking and vying for space to grow and thrive in the womb!!!!
Courtney C. Jan 28, 2009, 11:44am EST
That's crazy
Denise W. Jan 29, 2009, 7:13pm EST
And she has 6 more at home
Kim K. Feb 2, 2009, 3:56pm EST
TO: Maureen W. ---She already has 6 children at home, so she's not that far behind the Duggars now! God bless her and keep the little ones healthy and happy.

I am very glad that the babies are doing well. However, the woman is single and used fertility treatment to have all these babies. I think she overdid it and also cheated her children out of having a father.
Cortney R. Feb 5, 2009, 7:49pm EST
Wow, congrats to her. She will certainly be busy.
