I think it's really unethical and unfair to be having fertility treatment when you already have 6 children and are still under 35.

I agree especially when your a single parent it seems so irresponsible. I feel so bad for the first 6 kids that probably fought for attention before, they will now get little to no one on one time with their Mum. It may sound mean but I don't believe she should have been accepted for IVF at all not after having 6 kids alreay. Did they even investigate to see how well her kids were thriving and developing in such a large family before they knocked her up?]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 12:59:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=603078&title=eight-babies#603078 <![CDATA[EIGHT BABIES!!! : I too agree, we were talking about...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=603023&title=eight-babies#603023 Author: Natalie_G

I too agree, we were talking about this with our coffee group and we all thought the same thing.

Good thing that doesnt happen in NZ, they should only implant 1 not all 7 or 8 thats just stupid.

I hope the babies pull through though.]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 11:19:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=603023&title=eight-babies#603023 <![CDATA[EIGHT BABIES!!! : I also agree!

I also agree!

I definately think some investigations into that fertility clinic need to be done.

It just seems so irresponsible.]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 11:13:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=603016&title=eight-babies#603016 <![CDATA[EIGHT BABIES!!! : Yes i agree totally with the last...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=602998&title=eight-babies#602998 Author: xox6Girls1Boyxox

I think it's really unethical and unfair to be having fertility treatment when you already have 6 children and are still under 35.
I also don't agree that they should have implanted 8 embryos at once. The chances of all 8 children having complications must be extremely high?
Without knowing the whole story I'm asking myself how is she going to financially afford to bring up 14 children as a single mother? Thank goodness she's got the support of her mother.

Aside from that I do wonder how she managed to carry 8 babies for 32 weeks - amazing in itself!]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 10:55:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=602997&title=eight-babies#602997 <![CDATA[EIGHT BABIES!!! : They were a bit scathing on the...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=602971&title=eight-babies#602971 Author: AuntieSarah

They were a bit scathing on the news last night - but yeah why would she be implanted with 8 when she already has 6 children? Why would she be having any fertility treatment if she already had 6 children? And the six children are very young and include 2 year old twins ]]> Sun, 01 Feb 2009 10:30:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=602971&title=eight-babies#602971 <![CDATA[EIGHT BABIES!!! : This amazes me on so many levels....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24113&PID=602970&title=eight-babies#602970 Author: queenbean

yes they have 6 other chillies, so 14 in total, & apparently she's living at her mothers house....

 

Jeez i've got 7 but 3 of them are teenagers and my last 4 are 8yrs, 2yrs, 1yrs & 7 weeks and it's always a nightmare taking them out shopping, imagine having 8 toddlers running away from you in the supermarket,,,, Very scary thought

I cannot get over this.

You would need an army of nannies, if you think that in any daycare centre its one nanny per 2 under 2's, so you need at least 3.

If one started crawling and you lost it how long would it take you to notice.
