the medical expert on HLN just stated that implanting 8 embryos is malpractice. No question. The standard of care in the US and most of Europe is to implant ONE or possibly 2 embryos at a time.

Oh, my God! That sounds so crazy!Ethical fertility doctors would NOT. However there is always that sleaze ball that doesn;t care where he gets his money as long as the patient pays. Thsi doctor would have had to know she already had 7 kids as he would have to see her medical file before doing IVF or any fertility drugs. So either she is from Iran or a foreign country (saying Iran if that is where the father has to return to for work) and that is why the doctor did not know that she had any othr kids as she did not give him her medical records before hand, or he knew and did not care. Now a thought just occurred to me. I sure hope that this is not a family from Iran that came over here to have all these babies and their HUGE house is in Iran. That being the reason no one will ever find them. Sounds very hinky to me. Wonder if they are of political power and of Iran? If so then why did they come here to have these babies? Medical care not avialable over there?
I like your post!It is not up to a doctor (or the government) to decide how many babies a woman can have; however, it IS up to a doctor to decide on appropriate medical treatment and care, which may limit how many babies a woman has AT ONE TIME.
It is in no way in the best interest of mother or babies for 8 to be carried and born at once, the proof being that this is only the second time in known history that all 8 have survived more than an hour or so. Never has it been known for a woman to have 8 babies without medical intervention.
If a woman wanted to endanger her children or herself with another kind of drug, would a doctor be obligated to let her b/c this isn't China and we are a free country? Of course not. There are still ethical guidelines and laws. This woman DID endanger herself and her children. The fact that they are all alive is nothing short of a miracle. Take the financial aspect out of the equation, and there is still bound to be an investigation for malpractice by the medical board.
But, if you really want to know my suspicion...it is that she stole, borrowed, or illegally bought fertility drugs and was dosing herself. Just my prediction. I could be WAY off.

My suspicions are the same as yours:
"Britain's Sun newspaper reported that the mother works in a fertility clinic."
