I am so excited to have read this post. I'm pregnant and I am planning to breastfeed this new little one. I had a lot of trouble with the my first child that I only ended up breastfeeding her for 3 months.If this lady can breastfeed 8 babies; she just inspires me to breastfeed my 1 even more. Thanks for the great posts it helps me more and more to have somewhere to get advice and hear what others are doing. Kristy M.’s last blog post..

Im so sick of people bashing this lady. I am sure that she will make plenty of milk to give them a very good supplement to formula. I wish her all the best. I think its sick that if you are married, white, rich and you have a litter of artificially produced babies then you are a star but if you are anything outside of those parameters then you get bashed.

anyhow god bless her and her sweet babies!

I’m pretty sure that her lack of education or a husband has little to do with her choice of whether to breastfeed or not.

While breastfeeding would do so much good for these little ones, her track record of poor choices leads me to believe that it’s all a media ploy.

My heart breaks for the children she brought so selfishly into this world without the benefit of a husband, a job, her own home, or an education.

God go with them.

Well, I just hope she’s got someone to do EVERYTHING else in the house! I could do it, I think, but I would never leave my bed or the couch. Plus imagine how many calories she would burn…someone better bring her constant meals! Somehow a queen bee comes to mind…lol!
