Good Grief, Its Octomom!

I do remember there was one (tiny) mitigating detail in the doctor's favor: this woman had had 8 embryos implanted every time she'd had the in vitro procedure done, and each time, only one (or in one case, two) survived to grow into fetuses. These were the last of her embryos, she was figuring she'd get her one more baby and be done. No one was expecting that all 8 would magically grow this time around.

Doesn't change the fact that she shouldn't have had a seventh pregnancy at all, though.
