- The world's only nonuplets - nine babies born at the same time - are "in perfect health", says their mother, Halima Cissé.
Originally from Mali, she gave birth in Morocco after Mali’s government flew her there for specialist care.
Cissé gave birth by Caesarean section and her babies weighed between 500g and 1kg (1.1lb and 2.2lb).
During scans, doctors detected just seven babies.

No one is commenting how Mali government has done a great job to send her to moroco for further cares
Mali's government should be able to take care of its own people. While this woman is in Morocco being highlighted how many Malian women at home are having babies in remote villages without any medical help?
@@angelladavis2250 she was one of the women who needed help and the government did great job.
@@nasteexoaa6872 one of how many millions?
@@angelladavis2250 I'm sure she was the only one who was caring nine kids at once
Mali is busy fighting France
The father low-key looks like he's living a nightmare 😂😂😂
I shouldn't laugh.
🤣....right!
It’s true he is talking but not really there but the children look healthy and happy. The parents well I’m sure he hasn’t touch her since the birth. He ain’t taking chances lol
He's regretting trying a little too hard that night... 😆😆
Maybe he just hadn’t slept.
She's amazing! Carrying, birthing and taking care of 9 babies at the same time is a huge feat.
I bet she would’ve had a very big and heavy belly too I can’t even imagine how much weight she had on her
Must need 4-5 people to help.
Jesus loves you
@@leannbridwell1853 I agree because I had twins... lol
10 babies. Remember 3y old big sister, still a baby too. Poor thing may now be left oit while all attention and memory is on the younger 9
I can’t even babysit 1 baby for more than 30 minutes, can’t imagine taking care of 9 babies 24hours daily😭😭😭 Good luck n hopefully she receives help
Oh hi me again …. I found myself again.
I had four single births I was so overwhelmed I thought I would lose my mind. Brave woman
Yes, 18 x 24 hours x 18 years
@@worldcitizeng6507 ah nah, by 10 years old they should have been taught to take care of themselves and do some of the chores. I’ve seen an 8-year-old without a mother cooks for her family. It’s not impossible
I damn near fell out when I read, "30 minutes" 💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LOOOOOOOL! you are too hilarious.
I have 9 month old twins and trust me being exhausted is an understatement. I couldn't imagine 9 babies. Sheesh!
I feel bad for their one older sister, going from being an only child to one of TEN overnight. Lots of kids worry about being forgotten in the excitement of a new baby. When mom and dad suddenly have NINE babies to be taking care of, I can see that one older sibling being forgotten about completely.
Why must you be negative?
@@tanishanightingale It's not negative. It's a factual observation which means hopefully the little toddler will also be taken into consideration. Stop being triggered by common sense.
@@kayade5305 How can she be forgotten completely? Both of you make no sense. They will be all looked after. Thank god you are nowhere near them.
She’s 3. She doesn’t know or remember life without them….
@@user-gu6vf3je1d exactly. And most 3 year old little girls LOVE babies. I am sure she is helping out and being a good big sister!
10 kids under 4 they need a medal 🥇. The Mail government impressed me flying the mother to Morocco. Very well behaved babies great job.
The father is well connected to the upper echelons that’s why they receive good health care
@@difencrosbyexplain
@@swored. I’ll explain it easy as can. Stop looking at their skin colour and assuming because they are African it equates poverty. Listen to them speak French, this means they attended school which the poor can not because of cost. Look at the way they’re dressed, the poor can not afford those clothes. Also look at their skin. It’s free from blemish and even toned. They can afford dermatologist. Also from a superficial perspective look at the father. He has a little extra weight, meaning he does not work outside. He spends his time indoors. If they were poor the Mali government wouldn’t pay for such care. This family is from the ruling class and those 9 babies along with the first will rule too.
@@difencrosbyyour hilarious so your saying just because they have money and are groomed they have to be connected with politicians i think your the one judging them by there colour
@@difencrosby dude I’m African lol I ain’t assuming nothing like that. I just wanted to know what “upper echelons” means
Congratulations to the mom. However, all I can think of is...sleep deprivation. It's a good thing she has support. May the family continue to have resources to support their large family.
She looks exhausted in the video. Hope she is receiving some support. I see one lady that looks like she could be a nanny but clearly she needs more than one.
This is a beautiful miracle. It’s a shame they aren’t getting the sponsorship deals you’d expect
Sponsorship deals? For having a bunch of babies?
Sure....
What book of record give 😪😪😪

LOL
You don't get rewarded for taking overdose of fertility pill
I first heard this story after giving birth to my twins. I commend these parents and all of their helpers. They give new meaning to the phrase: it takes a village to raise a child!
In her case she'll need villages to raise her village
Her skin is flawless and babies are adorable! Blessing how healthy they all are 💓🐣🐣

She is 25 years old guys..

Even the oldest child, the daughter looks like the babies.

Bless this family with longstanding good health and an abundance of wealth. May they all get even love and grow to be the best the universe has offered those in their presence.
Nine of them came for a purpose and I pray they live it through without disruptions.
I was thinking the same... they literally all look alike. I'm not sure but they look like identical nonutuplets... didn't know that could happen.
@@rosevalerio5863 because their natural...no fertility treatments
@@gram01 Yes, I'm aware of that... but not all multiple births are identical. Some are fraternal... even when it's natural. I just didn't know if that was possible with septuplets, octuplets and nonuplets. Apparently it looks so, that's pretty cool 👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽👶🏽
@@rosevalerio5863 They look very much alike, but they can't be identical nonuplets because there are boys and girls, if they were identical it would either be all girls or all boys.
@@andreabrenes2148 Thank you... Lol, learn something new everyday. But it prompted me to look further and while that is true 99.9% of the time there has been rare instances in which identical twins have been different genders. So fascinating...
What a feat! May they all be well and strong to live healthy happy lives!

She mentioned that breastfeeding was difficult , i cannot even imagine. Happy for them.
She didn’t breastfeed 10 babies. They were in the NICU and were premature so would not have been able to breastfeed or drink breastmilk until much older. She could have pumped and frozen and supplemented everyone’s formula bottles when they were old enough. She also said she hadn’t used fertility medicine which is a lie.
@@amyseaden9069 Disappointed if she really is lying,
@@CarolynForney Think quadruplets are the most babies conceived naturally and chances are extremely rare. Estimated odds are 1 in 11-15 million births. To jump to 9 babies at once when 4 babies at once are so rare isn’t possible. People have multiples naturally two ways. Some women can ovulate more than one egg in one cycle. That is still quite rare but it does happen. Both eggs would have to get fertilized so not only do you have to be one of the rare people who releases more than one egg during ovulation but then you also have to factor in the odds that both eggs also get fertilized by a sperm. The other way to get a multiple is to have the egg split. If you have more than twins you have to have the egg split more than once which is extremely rare. To get to 9 babies you have to have a combination of ovulating multiple eggs and have eggs split multiple time. The odds of just one of these things happening is fairly rare but both happening and multiple times is just not possible. When you do fertility treatments and want to do an egg retrieval to do IVF and produce embryos you take medication to produce as many eggs as possible but not too many so that you put the patient’s life is in danger and also get good quality eggs. You want as many good sized and good quality eggs. When the eggs look big enough you get an injection of a certain medication (called a trigger shot) that will make the eggs ready to be collected and then the doctor uses a needle to aspirate them. Each egg is then put with a sperm in an attempt to fertilize the egg and create an embryo. When doing an egg retrieval they aim for around 8-10 eggs. Many end up with less eggs if they have fertility problems especially if they are older and you can end up with many more eggs. Not all the eggs end up getting fertilized and end up as embryos. I assume this women took the medication to hyperstimulate her ovaries and then she ovulated and all these eggs ended up in her uterus where all or many of them were fertilized. She could have also had a combination of fertilizing eggs and maybe an egg also split. Nobody will ever know but she may have looked online and decided what dosage of medication she needed. In many countries you don’t need a prescription you can go to the pharmacy and pick up any medication you want or you can order any medication online. She may have also seen a doctor who doesn’t specialize in fertility and they may have prescribed the wrong course of medication. I have a feeling that this woman did her own research and came out with her own medication plan. In many countries and in many cultures I fertility isn’t discussed openly even with close family. Many who seek out fertility treatments tell everyone they conceived naturally even after they may have had a child a decade after getting married when it would have been expected that they try to have a child soon after marriage. They will also deny having fertility treatment even if they didn’t have children for many years after marriage and then had triplets or quadruplets. It’s sad but unfortunately not being able to conceive naturally can lead to a woman being considered a bad spouse. There would have likely been pressure to get divorce and remarry if a couple didn’t have children after a certain amount of time. If it is discovered that a couple had fertility treatments there can be questions whether the child is part of the family even in cases where no sperm or egg donor was used. Hopefully these cultures will come to accept that fertility treatments, are in general, a very good thing that allows couples to have children as long as the treatments are done responsibly and don’t end up with high order multiple births. I hope this has provided you with some information about this case.
@@amyseaden9069 I just thought she was a freak of nature. There is.a town in one of the African countries where there is an unusually high rate of twin births . There is also another African country where there is a woman who hyper-ovulates and has produced 21 children , most are twins. Its here on UA-cam.
@@CarolynForney Yes have seen the report about an area in Africa where twins are so common. They think there is a genetic predisposition for that ovulating 2 eggs a month and there is quite a lot of intermarriage in the region so the genetic trait has become very dominant in the populations. Big difference between natural occurring twins and someone claiming they had nonuplets without medical intervention. Being able to have that many babies doesn’t make sense evolution wise. There would be so many maternal deaths and child deaths. Not to mention that this woman must have some severe pelvic and abdominal issues. Carrying so many babies can ruin all your core muscles that support your body, can ruin your bladder, can cause pelvic floor issues, you are more likely to get preeclampsia, etc. The woman likely will need surgery to rectify some of these issues. She got very lucky when the Mail government arranged for her care in Morocco. Who knows who paid but her children probably filled the whole NICU. Sure she didn’t mean to have 9 babies but she put her life at risk knowing that there was only very rudimentary obstetric care. Believe she came from Timbuktu where the economy is dependent on the smuggling route to North Africa and unless you are a big smuggler you aren’t earning a lot.
So proud of the parents. Some parents act like it's the end of the world with one child. Bless u all🙏❤️
In Kenya that is the trend. Complaining
Not everyone is the same. You need to be mentally ready for them as well as financially. And not everyone wants kids and that's ok, no matter what you think of them.
These are the type of comments that would make a struggling mother suicidal both to herself and the child. Everyone has their own struggles and should not be judged rather encouraged. Shane on people with like minds of your comment.😡😡
Did you really just put down other parents for thinking kids are difficult? I guess your mommy and daddy must feel like the end of the that just having to deal with you for you to talk like that.
The feminist brigade pulled up
So proud of her and hope she continues to get support because 1 child is taking enough...twinz and triplets are also difficult to handle sometimes...not to even talk of 9 plus their older sister.
me and my two under two thinking life is wild lol
I saw someone with quadruplets the other day and was so impressed.
Im having mini breakdowns with one baby😆

❤ Wow! What a blessing. I can't imagine breastfeeding 9.
Wowwwww!!! Amazing and omg! Yes the Babies were meant to be all at the same time! Beautiful!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Super mom... 💖 amazing !! Hope they are documented as they grow older
This woman is amazing. She is the epitome of strength in my opinion. What I don't like is the father is "visiting". Maybe I'm just being ignorant, but does Mali not have the capability to deliver seven babies? I said seven because the description said the doctor detected seven babies. How long are Halima and the babies going to be staying at the facility they are in? So far it's been about a year. Imagine having a baby and being stuck in a facility were you and your baby are being closely monitored and tested for a year. Could you imagine the emotional toll? Not being in close proximity with your family, friends, and especially your significant other. Having strangers care for your children, being interviewed regularly even when you don't want to. Bruh. I couldn't imagine. It's almost like the prison system here in America. When they lock you up, at first they'll constantly transfer you so you don't get comfortable. Then the facilities you go to will be far from home. This way the chances of you receiving a visit from your family is very slim to none. It's all a mental game. Love, light, and positive energy to you and yours.
Sounds like the are experimenting on her children. And being a young 25 years mother too. They is naive to think they are really having her best interests at heart. Wishing her and the young ancestors a peaceful time here in earth
@@Eehey33 Exactly.
Maybe he is working to provide for his family in their home country and caring for their other daughter…
@@Anonymous09981 You don't understand the point. Halima and their children should be in Mali as a family.
I can only imagine when they will be older 6years. 10years 13and 18 how amazing it will be. They will be proud of their work
She deserves an award, like a reknown medal or something
Praise be to Almighty Allah. What a beautiful family!
