A DOCTOR who helped a US mother of six fall pregnant with octuplets is now facing a state investigation.
California woman Nadya Suleman, 33, already had six children when she fell pregnant with six boys and two girls that were born on January 26. Suleman told US TV show Today that her fertility specialist doctor provided IVF treatment for all her 14 children.
The octuplets were born prematurely and aren't expected to be released from hospital for weeks. Suleman's other children are aged between two and seven.
In the Today interview Suelman said she hasn't ever been on welfare and doesn't plan to be and will instead rely on family, friends and her church to help her. |
