So...no one's going to comment?

Usually when I post on a board that my grandmother had 22 children, no miscarriages, and no twins, I get a whole lot of "WHAT?!?!?" 

Edit: I'm just kidding, didn't expect a lot of people saw it.

If you're going to fish, go ahead an elaborate...

It wasn't exciting, it was in someone else's post.  No big deal.

Huh?  No really, that's it, most people are just surprised and sort of freak when I mention it.  Didn't really mean anything!

I think that's about how many my GMIL had, but some of them were still born, died very young.  She ended up with 12 living into adult-hood, all girls.

That is pretty insane.  How did people have so many kids back then seemingly so easily when we are dying to just have the first one!!  Is it b/c they started when they were about 17?? 

My great grandmother had 12 kids, and most died before adulthood...which led her to go off the deep end, understandably.

I hadn't gone back to read my post, but once I read this I figured it had to be from my post. 

I just can't even imagine!

My great grandmother had 19 children... My grandmother had 7, my mom would have had 5 (I only have a brother). My whole damn family is so fertile, except me..

Mine too, if she wasn't off the deepend before all the kids, she definitely was afterward.  2 of them died swimming in a lake when they were 9 and 10, and she lost it.  I do think it's partially because they started younger.

YOWZA!

BTW: It's really nice to see you here. I used to lurk on Pets right around the time when Jake first came home, so I remember you.
