No, She Didn’t Have 14 Babies
A viral claim says a 23-year-old gave birth to 14 babies at once—but it’s pure fiction. No hospital or credible source supports it.
What’s True?
The real record is eight surviving babies, born in 2009 with IVF and a full medical team.
Other Big Families, Different Stories:
-
Mariam Nabatanzi (Uganda) had 44 children over many years due to a rare condition.
-
Leontina Espinoza (Chile) claimed 58 kids, but most were adopted or unconfirmed.
These fake stories spread because they’re shocking and emotional—often using unrelated photos, like Mali’s real case of nine babies born in 2021.
Bottom line: No one’s had 14 babies at once. Don’t believe the hype—fact-check before you share.
