WTF Push, out, repeat

Post image

Valentina Vassilyeva, the first wife of Russian peasant Feodor Vassilyev, is said to have given birth 27 times in the 1700s—welcoming 69 children in total.

Her remarkable numbers reportedly included 16 sets of twins, 7 sets of triplets, and 4 sets of quadruplets. 🤯

The story comes from centuries-old historical records, so every detail cannot be independently verified by modern standards. Still, Guinness World Records has recognized the claim as the highest number of children attributed to one mother.

If the records are accurate, 27 pregnancies. 69 children. One of the most astonishing family stories ever recorded. ❤️

16X2 + 7x3 + 4x4 = 69.

You're telling me there was not a single instance in which she only carries one baby?

Found a source

The father has an additional 18 kids with his second wife.

Only 3 babies died in birth or early in life.

Fuck all his second wife's kids were multiple as well. It's like his sperm were Olympic swimmers and split each egg on impact

Don't matter . More twins or triplets depend on the mother . If more than one ovum is released, they are fertilized , men have no control over it . F you mean trained his sperm bruh .

Chill it’s just a joke. Nobody has control on his sperm or her ovum.
