According to legend, a supermom gave birth to eleven infants at once somewhere in India, specifically in Surat.
You read it correctly: eleven infants! Is this factual, or is it simply an urban legend fueled by some excellent Photoshop work? Well, while the picture speaks for itself (and we ALL know how pictures can be misleading), anonymous sources indicate that the eleven sweet little bundles of joy photographed above are actually the eleven babies who were born on the unique day of November 11th, 2011 (11/11/11).
Now, there is a little bit of truth in the picture of the eleven kids. Six of them had been born to the same mother as twins. The remaining five, on the other hand, are just lucky infants who were born on a special day. But hold on a second! It claims that calls to the Guinness Book of World Records were made to recognize the incredible achievement, and they stated that "unofficial sources" are prepared to provide even more proof of the incredible delivery of 11 infants to the same mother.
Just so you know, at this point, no official news agency
has been able to confirm or deny the information that a

woman gave birth to 11 kids in just one pregnancy. So let's
take a step back and analyze the situation medically and
logically. Is it possible or not for a woman to carry 11
fetuses in her womb and to actually deliver them all alive?
Several births can occur naturally, such as when a woman ovulates more than one egg every month, in which case they can all be fertilized, or when she produces just one egg but it splits immediately after fertilization, resulting in multiple embryos, according to medical publications. Multiple births are becoming increasingly common as a result of infertility therapies like In Vitro fertilization.
This is the procedure which "implants" more than one fertile egg in a woman's womb, in hopes that at least one will be accepted by the body. Also, the use of fertility drugs can lead to multiple egg ovulation, hence multiple babies. The same question about how it is possible arises for the twins born months apart.
In another case, the 45-year-old "Octomom" Nadya Suleman, who has a total of 14 children, took to Instagram on Tuesday night to wish a happy birthday to the eight children she famously welcomed via IVF in 2009. Luckily, they all grow very healthy. So far, all of the reports of multiple babies beyond octuplets do not have happy endings. In 1999, a Malaysian woman gave birth to 9 babies, which were officially the most babies in one birth. Sadly, all babies died within 6 hours of living.
