Octuplets

Octuplets are the birth of eight babies from a single pregnancy, which is extremely rare. They develop from multiple embryos implanted in the mother's uterus, often through fertility treatments that increase the chances of multiple pregnancies. Carrying octuplets poses significant health risks for both mother and babies due to the high demand on the body. Most octuplets are born prematurely and may require intensive medical care. Cases of octuplets garner significant media attention because of their rarity and the complex medical and ethical considerations involved.
