The "Octo-mom"

>> Tuesday, February 10, 2009

Lately I have been hearing a lot about the lady in CA who recently gave birth to eight healthy (thankfully) babies.

I just want to say that she PISSES me off.

This lady, actually that connotation implies that she has class and common senses even. That woman already had six children all through IVF, she is a single mother (none of the children were born using her husband's sperm) who is living at home with her parents. Her mother, the children's grandmother is the primary care-giver to these kids. She can't even take care of the SIX she already has. I believe that is is pure selfishness for her to spend THOUSANDS of dollars on IFV to have more children when she can't provide for or take care of the ones she has.

She does not give her mother or father in financial support for letting her and her gaggle of children live in their THREE BEDROOM home, she has no job, but rumor has it (and this is just speculation so take it with a grain of salt) when you see pictures of her now and pictures of her after her first 6 were born she looks totally different. Favoring Angelina Jolie slightly....

does anyone know why its ok for A.J. to adopt a baby or two from every country in the world and have a few of her own? A. she has a shit ton of money to be able to support the kids and provide them with what they need B. she has a husband to help her out with this (not saying you have to have a husband to raise kids properly, but you do need help from somewhere).... This woman was single mom... she would have had a difficult time finding a man to take on her and SIX kids, I hope she likes being single because I don't think there is a man out there willing to take on FOURTEEN kids.... that's a football team practically.

She also pisses me off because there are so many good and deserving families out there who can't have one child. And she is going to go and *artificially* have FOURTEEN. I say artificially because she didn't use her husband when she had him and this time there wasn't even a man in the picture. I know many couples use IVF and there is not a problem with that. Its wonderful that we have the technology to allow more people to be able to conceive.

I also want to know what kind of doctor would implant SIX embryos in a woman's uterus. I realize that they plant multiples so there is a better chance of one of them taking, but you have to know there is a risk that when you plant SIX that SIX could be born. And that puts the babies in danger of not being able to develop and form properly. His license should be revoked. That is unsafe practice. I don't even know how he can sleep at night to know that he brought EIGHT children into this world for a slefish woman who can't take care of the SIX she already has. Nothing about this was a good idea, not even for her to want or have one more child. She can't give her existing children what they need.

Ok, now that I've got that out I feel better. Have a good day.
