I am absolutely appauled by this!!! I came across these stories and my head wants to explode! This is exactly why fertility treatments have such a bad rep. For people such a this that went to Dr who obviously are not abiding by the moral code of practising. This is not a good situation for a single one of those babies who so is fighting to make it just a day longer...
PEOPLE! THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY!!!!!!!!
It is a life! I do not agree with this one bit. If she was on injectibles, so be it. However, she should have been monitored very closely and not triggered had she had over X amount of eggs! My current Dr will not trigger if more than five are over 15mm! Even if each and every one of those fertilized and they split to make five sets of identical twins, that's still less than 12! ARGH!!!!

I really think people are in it not for the celebrity status. I mean, if Octomom is going to have a reality TV show to portray her finding love, heck, why wouldn't someone want to follow in those footsteps, or heck, try to out do them! This just absolutely disguests me!!!!
