The
woman is looking forward to welcoming her dozen into the world. If she bets all the odds stacked against her a new world record for live human births will be set.
eFitness Now reports:
“I am feeling fine and looking forward to hugging my six boys and six girls,” said the woman, from Gafsa, Tunisia, who is yet to be named.
The
medical team has said that the woman wants to give birth naturally.
Her husband is said to be overjoyed with the news.
Doctors do not believe that she could go into labour as early as 20 weeks into the pregnancy. A normal pregnancy is 40 weeks. The odds of even one of the babies to survive is 100 to 1 according to medical experts.
Doctors have begun to monitor the woman. If she and the babies survive the health authorities have already said that they will provide assistance to the mother and her family.
