South African woman gives birth to 10 babies in Pretoria - reports

A South African woman has reportedly given birth to 10 babies in what would be a new world record.

Gosiame Thamara Sithole's husband says they were astonished by decuplets after scans only showed eight in the womb.

"It's seven boys and three girls. I am happy. I am emotional. I can't talk much," her husband Teboho Tsotetsi told Pretoria News after the birth.

One South African official confirmed the births to the BBC, however another said they were yet to see the babies.

1. When you have that many babies at the same time....

Can you refer to it as a "litter"

3. Sorry

but that's rude. That's what some people actually called the Dionne quintuplets at the time. The correct term is "superfetation".

2. Possible, yes. Desirable, no. n/t

4. Well, I'd rather not either

But it wasn't intentional on her part, apparently.
