US woman has given birth to eight babies, becoming just the second person recorded in the US to have delivered a set of living octuplets.
The six boys and two girls, who were nine weeks premature, were delivered by Caesarean section in the hospital in Los Angeles, California.
The babies weighed in at between 1lb 8 ounces (820g) and 3lb 4oz (1.47kg) and are all said to be doing well.
They were screaming and kicking around very vigorously, a doctor said.
The mother, whose identity has not been revealed, has asked that limited information be released about the births.

A hospital spokeswoman described the deliveries, which took place in the space of five minutes, as "truly amazing".
The medical team had scheduled a Caesarean section for seven babies, but doctors were surprised when an eighth came out.
"Lo and behold, after we got to Baby G, which is what we expected, we were surprised by Baby H," said Dr Karen Maples.
Three of the babies needed help breathing, but all were otherwise doing well, a doctor said.
The babies will be in incubators for at least six weeks and the mother is planning to breast feed them all, the hospital officials said.

The world's first live-born set of octuplets were delivered in Houston, Texas, in 1998.

  • GREAT IDEA--QUOTE "Suspend that doctors practicing license and make him pay child support. He won't do this shit again"!

  • These women who run to fertility banks? they are women who have tried for months to get pregnant. All ICSI procedures in US involve injecting multiple developed embryos with the hope that one or 2 survive (whereas in this case all 8 survived). This is a stupid move on the doctors side and could have been avoided if US doctors werent so careless.
