Octo-Mom: I Might Have More Kids in the Future

Is 14 enough for the Octomom?
Maybe, maybe not.
Check out shots from Nadya's family album
In a new interview for Good Morning America, Nadya Suleman doesn't dismiss the possibility of having more children.
"If I wanted to do it the traditional way and get married, that's like another chapter," Suleman, 34, tells GMA's Kate Snow of getting pregnant again -- but the prospect of more mouths to feed at the moment makes her laugh.

The mother, interviewed in her home in La Habra, Calif. as she gets her kids ready for bed, says that she typically sleeps two to three hours a night.
A day in the life of Octomom: see the slideshow
She shares some staggering numbers: $1000 in food and 700 diapers per week, 4.5 gallons of milk and eight loads of laundry per day, and a team of five nannies costing $10,000 per month.
Which is why, Suleman says, she agreed to allow a film documentary crew to follow her around for a series of specials (not a reality TV show), including one that's already aired in the United Kingdom. Her payment: approximately $250,000 in the first year.
What are Octomom and other celebs thankful for this holiday season?
"I'm dammed if I do and dammed if I don't," she tells potential critics. "Because if I don't do what I need to do in the media to take care of and support the kids, I can't take care of them."
Tell Us What You Think
132Better for you and your children to stay with the number you already have. I hope you have enough support with all your children. Remember its important to have GROWNUP down time and not only children.
i reall hate that woman,she needs to stop using her kids to make money,get a real job.if she has more kids the state needs to stop giving her money,cant she see were in a recession.Stop hers funds now.
she should have not been allowed to breed
This proves it! SHE IS OUT OF HER EVER LOVING MIND!!!
NO MORE KIDS 14 is more tha enough. Nayda, I don't think you'll find a man that will want 2 have more kids on top of the 14 he'll b helping u with. On the upside I'm glad u're doing a paying job 2 help take care of ur family. $250,000 a year ain't bad & its enough 2 keep u & the kids on ur feet 4 awhile.
Type your commentIf she is really mentally ill then this is not her fault. If someone has diabetes would you blame them? This tragedy is the fault of society. Everyone who is against it should do something to change the law that no one is allowed to have that many babies by themselves. To have that many babies at once the natural way would be close to impossible anyways here
So what about her criticism of the Gosselins? She hammered them because they were trying to make a living to take care of their children. (And they actually HAD jobs when they started their show.) Now she says she has to do the same? What a hypocrit. And how many of her children does she expect everyone else to support? We are already paying her bills.
8 babies is a litter. Stop breeding and get spayed.
Don't blame the kids....they didn't ask to be brought into the world....Blame her!!!
This world does not need more kids in it. There are millions that are starving without a home. Nadya, you have more than used up your allotment. Please, no more kids! Enough is enough!
She is insane forthinking on having more kids, she can't even take care of the 14 she already has. She lived in the basement of her parents house with her 6 kids and she came home with eight!!! INSANE to have more. NO WAY SHE SHOULDN'T. I mean don't get me wrong I love kids I have 3 myself and want at least two more but I take care of my kids on my own. The state is taking care of her kids and she is LOVING the camera...it's all for show. She isn't fit to have anymore kids...No way!!!
Hey leave the lady and her kids alone. And Amanda she did not use a condom because she was insemanated way different. She lived not far from us and worked at the same place my sister-in-law did before she got sick. And people don't try to tell me your tax dollars are going to feed are care for her kids you are all miss led, she is not the only one getting help there are a few hundered thousand in Los Angeles County alone so I am sure her 14 are not draining the system.
I agree with you Annie,Nancyg, and Fed up taxpayer. I wouldn't give her 10 cent if that was all it took to feed all of them. I don't feel sorry for her or the kids. Those are her kids, let her take care of them. With her Dumb ass.
People - why are you calling these innocent children a "litter"?? They are not animals! People do not have "litters" - animals do. Quit insulting these poor children! It is not their fault regardless of who the parents are. They are human beings!!
5150 - have her committed. She is a danger to her kids and potentially herself. To rely on the State AND the Media as your only source of support for your brood is sick. You know the Media doesn't give a darn about their [the kids] well being, and the State only has limited funds (just wait until California starts issuing IOUs for wellfare checks).
i have had 15 foster children in my life and 2 of my own i can only say that there is always enough love to go around but bringing more children into a world where so many other children are in need is more than stupid it is irresponsible
Seriously lady?? Holy f*ing crap.Does she know what a dang condom is? I have 3 kids under the age of 8 and thats exausting enough!! If I had this many kids I'd shoot myself!! I blame this women for the bad economy, global warming and anything else thats wrong with the world. YOUR NOT ANGELINA JOLIE! HELL, SHES SMARTER THEN YOU! Get a real life!!
she is a fu*kin d*mn sl*t who is a selfish b*tch!!! those poor kids, someone should take them away from her, she sould not have anymore kids becouse she couldent even take care of the one's she has now, she had to make a d*mn documentry about them just for money, she really needs to get her fu*kin tubes tied and learn what a fu*kin condom is for!!!
Blech...
To Journe Why does the life of somebody you don't know, will never know get you so riled up! You say that "Amazing to me that any form of media now would pay her for anything," Well if you don't think that the media should give her her the time of day, why do YOU?? It's because of people like you who obviously have no life that keep, her name in the headlines. If you can't stand her, then MOVE ON!! You make yourself sound stupid that you would rattle on about somebody you hate. You sound jealous!
