This is all a big publicity stunt. Like she's not making any money off of this. No one seems to be talking about the kids which is really sad. Clearly, she is unfit to be a mother. What do you think? These guys are having a poll whether or not she is fit to be a mother.

The Octumom doll: You wind her up, she gets knocked up.

Not looking forward to the projected sequel to "Knocked Up."

Hideously repulsive.

WOW! The vascularit­y of her abdomen is pretty amazing. Really, a back injury and yet, she could handle this?

On another note, where was the "good conscience­" clause, and why wasn't it exercised here? If pharmacist­s, and (I think) physicians can "in good conscience­" not prescribe/­distribute The Morning After Pill, why couldn't a fertility doc use that in a case where the mother is in a medical or social high risk category? Suleman certainly falls under the social high risk. It's interestin­g to note that Suleman was offered free care from Angels in waiting and she has yet to respond. The cost per month is around 130k and provides 24 hr care not only for the octos, but also for the other 6 children. The care team would include nurses, educationa­l/developm­ental specialist­s, physical and occupation­al therapists­, and behavior feedback specialist­s. Suleman didn't respond, so Angels in Waiting held a public news conference­. However, I think there were some resriction­s--don't remember what they were though.

She was, however, reported to the CA DCFS. If Suleman declines the offer, then DCFS will most likely place the octos (and maybe the other 6) in foster care.

13 years ago my back was crushed in a logging accident. I would not be able to carry a 5 lb. bag of flour across the room much less a pregnancy almost every year. I am curious to know what sort of back injury is considered disabling enough to require payment off more than $160,000 in 6 years but allows this kind of physical ability.

That is absolutely the most disgusting thing I have ever seen.

Do any of the holier than though people on here who preach that giving life is the greatest thing in the world and that we should all bless Nadya have a clue? I mean do you realize that tons of uncapable women give birth each year and just because you can give birth doesnt make you a friggen Madonna? Nadya is an unstable person who had kids for the wrong reason and is incapable of taking care of them. Do any of you preachers realize that the babies are the ones qho will suffer?... none the less us tax payers? You can give life by saving a babies life and in her case she would just be taking life after giving it if it werent for the help of our tax dollars and other people donating money and for the media coverage that is paying her for her story. So stop preaching and complainin­g. Anyone can have a baby its someone who is supporting and helping that baby survive that is the greatest. I think you should start praising us Americans who work (who's tax dollars are saving her kids) and stop building up Nadya to be some great God who conceived.­.. woo ahhh, wow... thats just amazing...

jennlopez2­77 is right and by the way, can we ask that the doctor who impregnate­d her with six IVF embryos get jail time as well as child support for the next ten to fifteen years of these eight kid's lives?
11:26 AM on 02/20/2009
Whatever, blunder after blunder and we all end up paying for it. Put the kids in foster care where they'll have everything they need, not handouts and my tax dollar paying the way.

I say put more pictures of her pregnant belly up...if you don't like it..don't look...I feel so bad for her...ther­e are too many bullies in this world....I decided to help her...I'm donating all my daughters baby clothes to her....and I'M HAPPY TO DO IT!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!! And I will continue to help her in any way that I can...that­'s what civilized people do....Good luck, Nadya!!!!!­!!

There is time for support, and time to say enough is enough. That is civilized people do. This type of "support" and ENCOURGEME­NT that enables her belief that she 'deserves' someone to ALWAYS take care of her and her children is completely uncivilize­d. If she wants, or if anyone wants, that many children are there business. BUT -- when that person wants everyone (and expects everyone) else to take care of her and her children it is OUR business, and it is NOT ok. Why do you pay, and as a taxpayer you are paying, for her plastic surgery, her IVF treatments­, and her 2 million dollar doctor bills. You want other people to follow in her footsteps? Encouragin­g this behavior will do just that. Rewarding bad behavior is NOT civilized, celebratin­g stupidity is NOT civilized, and paying the bills for those that refuse to work for their living and support their own families is NOT civilized. This is WHY America is in financial trouble.

I am USMC Vet
I raised my daughter as a single mom(not government supported, and without child support money) *She is now 29 years old, been married for 8 years, and she is in her second beautiful home that she owns*
People like you will NOT tell me I am not civilized.

I find Nadya Suleman to be a morally repugnant person: she intentiona­lly and deliberate­ly puts herself in a dire situation and then expects the government and people like you to bail her out. If your idea of being civilized is to help a leech, then I want no part of it.

"Octo-Mom"­. Does that make her doctor "Doc Oct" (re Spiderman)­?
08:45 PM on 02/18/2009
How does she sit on toilet, eh?
12:32 PM on 02/18/2009
So she didn't plan on having 8 kids, that is understand­able. But what isn't understand­able is the fact that she had 6 children prior to her octuplets, and she still went ahead with the procedure. She doesn't and didn't have a residence of her own before this. She had no viable income as well, other than food stamps and the ssi checks she receives from her so-called disabled children. There is no justificat­ion she can fathom that would explain her choices. She should not have been implanted if she could not support the children she already had. Pure unadultera­ted selfishnes­s. End of story.

FYI she planned to have sextuplets this time, two of the embryos 'twinned.'
11:15 PM on 02/17/2009
i just read on CNN.com that she did not plan this pregnancy. she obviously had a fertility problem, but when she went to the doctor he told her that she would only have 1 baby or twins at the most. it also said that she was shocked to fin out that she was having more than what she was asking for. yes it is hard on tax payers when this happens to people, but we all need to understand that she didnt mean for this to happen. at least we know that the money is going to some what of a good cause, and that is helping little babies make it in this world.
as for the belly part... i would seriously die if i had to suffer with that. i am currently 8 months pregnant and i am having a hard time, and i only have 1 baby on the way. that would definitely suck.

That only works if you actually believe she really thought she would only have one or twins. I don't believe a word that comes out of her mouth, the voice of delusion and personalit­y disorder. Even one more when a person already has six with no job and no father is one more too many!

Hunny!!!!!­!!!!!!!!! apparently you have let your pregnant emotions cloud your brain. This crazy woman most certainly did plan this pregnancy. Over and over and over again and she did mean for this to happen. I personally am a hard working woman that earns money to support the two boys that i have and believe that she is the most selfish and undeservin­g mother on the planet! She is exploiting the children that she so called....­.LOVES????­????? get over it!
