65-year-old German expecting quadruplets
Print Edition
A 65-YEAR-OLD Berlin woman who already has 13 children is pregnant again with quadruplets, German media reported yesterday.
The Russian and English teacher鈥檚 pregnancy follows several attempts abroad at artificial insemination over the last year and a half, German RTL broadcaster said.
The woman, Annegret Raunigk, decided to try to have another child because her youngest daughter, who is nine, wanted a little brother or sister, RTL said.
The TV channel will broadcast an interview with the expectant mother, who has seven grandchildren, today.
It said the pregnancy had so far been without any major complications and that if everything went well, the babies were due in the summer and that Raunigk would be the world鈥檚 oldest mother of quadruplets.
Bild am Sonntag newspaper quoted the mum-to-be as saying the news had initially come as a shock.
鈥淎fter the doctor discovered there were four, I had to give it some thought to begin with,鈥 Bild quoted her as saying, adding however she had not considered it an option to reduce the number of embryos.
Asked about the moral implications, she said: 鈥淚 think, one must decide that for oneself.鈥
