Ghazala Khamis, a 27 year old Egyptian woman, from the coastal city of Alexandria gave birth to septuplets early Saturday. She was in good condition after having a blood transfusion during her Caesarean section due to bleeding, said Emad Darwish, director of the El-Shatbi Hospital where she gave birth.
This is a very rare pregnancy — something I have never witnessed over my past 33 years in this profession,” Darwish told The Associated Press by phone from the hospital.
Darwish decided to carry out the Caesarean section at the end of Khamis’ eighth month of pregnancy due to the pressure on her kidneys. He said Khamis, who already has three daughters, took fertility drugs in an effort to have a son.
Well, she got her wish plus more! Along with her three existing daughters she welcomes 4 boys & 3 girls! WOW!!!! That’s alot of kids! I hope they have good jobs or a good support system to help take care of the kids! The good thing is that all seven babies are healthy & happy!
