It's quads - again
29may05 A QUEENSLAND woman is pregnant with quads for the second time in what is believed to be a world first.
Dale Chalk, 26, is due to give birth to her second consecutive set of quads in December.
Mrs Chalk and her husband Darren, 34, a security guard, became parents to quads last August using an anonymous sperm donor through the Queensland Fertility Group. They also have a daughter, Shelby, 2, conceived using the same donor.
After the birth of her first set of quads – Ellie, Emma, Joseph and Samuel, who were born 13 weeks early – Mrs Chalk said they wanted as many as 12 children and she would be delighted if she had another set of quads.
"If we had quads again that would be the bees' knees," she said at the time.

Wow. Two litters in a row. That's crazy. But, if that's what they wanted...
It appears that Australia's $3000 baby bonus is working as intended...

Killer delivery...she'll never walk again.
$27,000 on top of his security guard salary....I guess that covers the diapers.
Could you imagine Valium by the truck load in that house?
Is there a dearth of babies there??
susie
Her husband is a security guard who obviously does not work nights! Or does he? Hmmmmm...........
>>>The one thing that I never saw mentioned in the show was what the father did for a living to afford 15 kids and a stay at home wife. Or how they were affording to build a massive new home for everyone.>>>
He's a security guard and they live with her parents. Um yeah, it's easy to want 12 kids when you aren't the one supporting them. Australia is seeing the products of thier (almost) socialist society in this generation.
Maybe.
Everytime my wife starts whining about money and spending too much, etc, I just comment that disposable diapers are so expensive and point out how much money we would save going to cloth.
Shuts that talk right up for a while.
I would make you buy a separate washing machine just for the diapers.
My only gripe would be if they were on the public dole. It SEEMS that the grandparents are willing to help out in any way that they can. Hope they've checked with all the companies that are providing freebies for them....
After some searching, here is the link to the Discovery Health show on them 14 kids and pregnant again
And here is the family's web site... The Official Website of the Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar Family
And yes, the guy's name is Jim Bob and they live in Arkansas!
And now I know what he did for a living. He was a state Rep in the Arkansas House and he ran for the US Senate in 2002.
Here is a picture of the Southern Baptist Cult Family...
Yes, I was being sarcastic with the cult comment, but only slightly.
That's gonna hurt coming out...Oh...wrong quad..
Yeah, that's my attitude. I'm gaping, not griping.
LOL!!!! ;)
Also reminds me of the old Groucho Marx line (I'm paraphrasing here)...he had a woman on who had many, many children and he asked her why.
She said, "I love my husband."
Groucho said, "Well, I love my cigar, but I take it out of my mouth from time to time".....
