Have you seen the size of their house..I swear their kitchen dining room lounge area is bigger than our entire house.

it is amazing that Michelle is only about 8 or so years older than me yet has 16 soon to be 17 more children than me.

and the parents (least in the public eye) seemed so relaxed as do the children.

now if each of their 18 children have 18 children that will be a total of 324 grandchildren imagine having a family reunion..lol]]> Wed, 21 May 2008 00:56:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17093&PID=389364&title=woman-pregnant-with-18th-child#389364 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17093&PID=386490&title=woman-pregnant-with-18th-child#386490 Author: Paws

I think it's fantastic. In the pic of #17 they all looked happy and healthy, so if they want to have #18 and beyond, good for them! 18 kids doesn't just happen... and I say this because I had three without problem and then suddenly had endo issues which did affect my fertility and who knows what the future holds for me? I mightn't be able to have 18 if I tried. (But I have fingers crossed for #4)]]> Tue, 13 May 2008 20:53:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17093&PID=382660&title=woman-pregnant-with-18th-child#382660 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17093&PID=381197&title=woman-pregnant-with-18th-child#381197 Author: Roksana

DH and I are unanimous, if we had a big lotto win we'd do this... build a huge home and fill it with our own mixed rugby team + reserves.

Not so sure on the same letter thing but I guess it makes it easier as you're running through the kids names (c'mon, those with more than one sibling can't tell me your parents don't use the worng name with you sometimes).
