Of course, the news of such a multiple pregnancy instantly went around the world and interested many doctors.
A week after the birth, when all the babies were able to survive, Nadya became a real record-breaker, because when you have children before their due date, not all of them can usually come out.
Nadya's life was extremely difficult. In addition, she was forced to raise her eight children on her own and with almost no support from the state.
At one time, Suleman admitted that she had to go to extremes, such as shooting candid scenes. Now, however, she seems to have it a lot easier.
And not too long ago, the eight-year-old celebrated her birthday. The 47-year-old single mom shared exclusive footage with Daily Mail reporters.
Internet users congratulated the mother and her children on this momentous day:
"So beautiful and happy", "Still motherhood is a beautiful woman", "I can't imagine how hard it was to raise them", "I think she is a real heroine".
By the way, Nadya had her eight children when she was already the mother of six. Initially, she was diagnosed as infertile.
However, Suleman really wanted children. She began treatment in 1997.
In 2001, Nadya became a mother for the first time - her son was born. In 2002, her daughter was born.
Thanks to IVF treatment, she had three more pregnancies. So in total, Suleman has 14 children.
Nadya also didn't know at first that 12 embryos instead of 2 were implanted. Eight of them implanted - and the woman simply could not decide to have an abortion.
