Mom Of Octuplets Will Breastfeed Her Babies – Is It Possible?
Wow, can you imagine having eight babies all at once? The CA mom who gave birth to octuplets on January 26 is planning to breastfeed her babies and that’s wonderful, but my question is, is that even physically possible?
From the New York Times:
“A full-term newborn eats about eight and twelve times a day, taking about two to three ounces per feeding (every baby is different, and these averages are for full-term singletons not preemie octuplets, but let



HAS ANYONE THOUGHT THAT MAYBE SHE NEED TO GIVE THESE PRECIOUS CHILDREN UP FOR ADOPTION? THEIR ARE SO MANY WELL EDUCATED,SANE,STABLE TWO PARENT INCOME COUPLES IN THIS WORLD THAT WOULD LOVE TO GIVE THESE CHILDREN UNCONDITIONAL QUALITY AND QUANITY TIME. SHE IS NOT CAPABLE OF RAISING THESE CHILDREN WITH OUT GOVERMENT ASSISTANCE…SHE NEEDS TO GET REAL! OTHER PICURES OF HER PREVIOUS 6 CHILDREN ALREADY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE NEGLECTED. PERHAPS A HAIRCUT,A BATH AND BETTER CLOTHING. THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR TO THE NEWBORNS AND HER POOR PARENTS!
Nobody is judging this woman. Her selfish, narcisistic actions are being judged. When you put your self out there to gain sympathy, and money at the expense of 16 precious lives and lie through your teeth about your circumstances and then ask people for money to support the outcome of your screwed up, mindless self-centered psychotic carcass then you get what you get. A talent agent? For what? A dog can have a litter. It doesn’t take any talent to do what she did. Her talent is being a manipulative psycho who should have been neutered.
I have 9 year old twins and I work hard to provide for them. I can’t even begin to imagine providing for 14 children by myself. Shame on Naydia for looking for handouts. Who does she think she is? She shouldn’t let her own crazy delusions mess up so many lives.
I think Child Protective Service needs to take the 8 babies and give them to someone with a brain. It is STUPID to think Nadya can take care of 14 children!!!NO Way. I feel sorry for the children having a mother who thinks of her own wishes and desires instead of her children. Her kids will all suffer.
She wanted these children SO she should have to take care of them not anyone else. She made her bed and now she needs to sleep in it.
WOW!!! 13 kids that’s alot I have 7 with two more on the way and I think that’s alot but not all 7 are mine 3 of them I adopted due to friends passing. I am very fortunate that my husband and I have good jobs. and I don’t see how she would breast feed all 8 babies at once she can do like two at a time only and what about if all 8 wake up crying at the same time? than what will she do?
This is stupid. She is irrational. She has no means to support them. She doesn’t even have means to support the other six she has at home.
She is tormenting her mother by having her take care of them.
I can cast jugement. She is insane.
I am adopted. I am an only child. You get what you get!
It wasn’t my choice to determine how many kids my parents wanted. It was their choice.
Saying all of the above, I wouldn’t want to pay for her descisions if the economy was great (Clinton Great), and I’m sure I don’t want to pay for them now.
I think you are right Anna. Ms. Suleman’s decision certainly wouldn’t be my decision, but I’m feeling more and more sorry for her as each day passes and with each rotten remark I read. I just think if she were my daughter and those were my grandchildren, I wouldn’t want people thinking and feeling that way about them. And I’ve been less than a perfect person in my life, so I’ll refrain from casting judgment on her.
wow..this new mom of 13 sure has brought out evil in people. The things being said is unbelievable and they don’t even know this women! When did people become so vile,mean spirited and cruel??? And just plain evil!Careful how you judge another..it will come back to you. How you judge another will be how you are judged.And let him who cast the first stone be without their own sin.
they would not implant 8, most likely it was super ovulation with hormones and hten she had sex which fertlized all the ensuing embryos that the overy spit out during that cycle.
Still, it is playing with fire having sex when know you are attempting super ovulation , protected or not.
i wish i could be more enthusiastic about the birth of these octuplets, but i’m not. of course i’m glad they’re all alive and healthy (at least for now), but i can’t help but feeling like their mother did an increadibly insane/selfish thing. getting pregnant and having a baby you can’t support by accident is one thing–it sucks, but it happens. but having eight viable embryos implanted when you already have six children at home? that’s just selfish and cruel, if you ask me.
yeah Alice, forget those stupid babies, they don’t deserve a real chance at a good life anyway. –
I think there is much more to be said for the medical procedures that caused her to have 8 babies at once in the first place. sheesh.
She is going to do that and care for her 7,6,5,4 and 2 years old twins without a husband to help out? Riiight! This crazy bitch is looking for handouts and publicity. It is the only reason she had them. She wants a TV show and donations. I say screw her and heaven help her stupid parents.
That woman is in for a treat. My boobies felt like they were going to fall off with ONE child with a bad latch for a while there…
