ot - uk mother has sextuplets not conceived through ivf

a uk mum has given birth to sextuplets after ignoring drs advice. she said she put her faith in god and not drs, who advised aborting several of the babies. all babies are stable in intensive care, weighing between 1lb7 and 2lb5, following a c section involving over 30 medical staff. she said she could definitely feel 24 limbs...the mind boggles lol

Wow, that's crazy!! Good for her and the babies are small, but I believe that for sextuplets, those are pretty good weights. My sister has twins and they were 2lb8oz and 3lb13oz.. :Pretty little..
