Another one of my codes this week to get 10 cents on one of my survey sites was find the name to the women that had 69 kids. What?! 69 kids that is a lot way to many to give birth two. We all know of the women that has 19 kids she has had 21 pregnancy one miscarriage and one still birth. I can't even imagine having 19 kids to 69 kids. I don't even know if I could remember them all. There would al,ksr always be a brithday or several having the same birthday, I have three kids and two of them where born 6 days from each other's birthdays and some times I get my boys mixed up ans call them the others name.

I know she had to have been busy. I imagine it like the little old women that lived in a shoe with all those kids.

@Genipher I hope not a high heel. A boot a really tough good leather boot. Because with all those kids it's going to need to tough and strong. I thought it would be fun to like in a pumpkin.

@ShyBear88 I've often thought it would be fun to have a house built that looked like a giant shoe!

Feodor Vassilyev I looked her up (thanks a lot, you sparked my curiosity!) and wikki says she had, "...16 pairs of twins, 7 sets of triplets and 4 sets of quadruplets between 1725 and 1765" That was one fertile woman!

I'm glad it got your interested. Some of those questions for my codes are very interesting.

Whoops. Feodor was the husband, not the woman who gave birth. His first wife had 69 kids. Only 67 of them survived infancy. His second wife had 18 kids, also a bunch of twins and triplets. There are some sources that claim this story as a hoax. Still, interesting to think about. And I bet many people are thankful they're not in Feodor's shoes! 87 kids to support? Wow.

@Genipher I hope he was rich to be able to have that many kids. Hand me downs would have been the only thing saving them plus I would hope the older ones would help out like crazy with the young ones. I couldn't do that. I want one more kid and I have three already and people think that's crazy.
