A WOMAN is soon to deliver a record-breaking 12 BABIES, it was claimed today. The teacher is expecting six boys and six girls, according to reports.

She conceived the tots following fertility treatment, after suffering a number of miscarriages.

British fertility experts confirmed the extraordinary pregnancy in Gafsa, Tunisia, was possible - but carried "colossal" risks. The mum - who has not yet been named - reportedly told doctors she was "feeling fine and looking forward to hugging her six boys and six girls".

I feel sorry for the babies if this is true. I pray for their health. They will surely be very premature.

Octomom was a catchy phrase, what will the media caller her? Something based on “dozen” but nothing seems to work?

Interesting - I will pray for all of their health and well being. I guess this is the potential problem with fertility treatments. I would never want to decide to “eliminate” a baby so the others may survive, but at the same time, it doesn’t seem like it’s a great situation either. I wonder if perhaps adoption would be an option for this mother or others like her?

A dodecahedron is a polyhedron with twelve faces, so this must be “dodecamom”.

This sort of thing is an abomination. Fooling with the natural way in which little humans are produced, is against nature.

Adoption was certainly the answer for us. With all the unwanted babies in the world I don't know why people do this. 12 babies all at the same time is a nightmare.
