Did anyone see this doco on Prime last night?

I started watching it and then DH turned it over and I missed the end. Did that woman end up getting sterilised? and did that woman who was on clomid end up getting pregnant again for the 14th?? time (I think that was her)?

It was really good. One family had 12 girls and 1 boy (poor boy). There was a blended family (she had 5 of the children and he had fathered all of them, 6 from a previous relationship) and she was the one wanting sterilising. Then there was a single mum of 10 children (her husband dies of cancer).

The younger blonde did end up getting booked in to be sterilised.

The older blonde mum of 13 (12 girls) was pregnant at the end of the show with baby no. 14.

The 45 yr old mother of 13 (or 14, can't remember) who named their little boy "Alice" was told by a fertility spec that she had no hope of conceiving again and IVF was very unlikely to work.

And the single mum (husband died of cancer a year ago) has shacked up with another guy now but I don't think anymore babies were on the way. (Can't quite remember this one)

Was pretty interesting hearing their reasons for wanting so many children. A lot of them mentioned how they just wanted to be needed.

The blonde lady with all the girls actually miscarried at 15 weeks it said at the end.

The lady who had the 10 kids whose husband died actually wants more kids! Her new partner is 56 and he already had 6 himself. Crazy!!
