St. Catherine of Siena was the 23rd (child in her family).

I'm astonished that, in those pre-sanitation days, any woman had the stamina to bear that many children and survive.

I'm more of the Dave Barry persuasion: "Where did they find the time to conceive that many?"

Cheers!

Yes, it’s very unusual for a couple to have sex 23 times during their marriage.
