From WebMD: Myomectomy Myomectomy is the surgical removal of fibroids from the uterus. It allows the uterus to be left in place and, for some women, makes pregnancy more likely than before. Myomectomy is the preferred fibroid treatment for women who want to become pregnant. 1 After myomectomy, your chances of pregnancy may be improved, but are not guaranteed.

Actually I hope Octo gets a reality show. It's the best way to make sure that her babies and older kids are/will be cared for properly - with all eyes on her and them. Plus while I am not keen on financing her spa sprees, etc, I think the income and freebies generated will go a long way towards helping these kids in the short-run and hopefully in the long-run. Has social service gotten in on the act yet to oversee that she isn't overwhelmed and that the any monies she makes off the publicity, etc, are spent properly?

Hopefully someone will put a lien on her pay. She probably owes a fortune. I agree that the babies should be put in good loving homes. How many normal people would love and adore them!

I'm not sure I want them taken away from her, as I have no doubt she loves them, (in her own narcissistic way) and there's no proof I'm aware of that she's abusive. She certainly won't be able to neglect them if the cameras are on her 24/7. And if she does, then there's the proof, and that would start the legal balls rolling, I expect.

Mame, hopefully she will move up your way and let your government oversee her. But being in the same county, I'm simply not amused at all. Just the fact that she is taking the little ones out to public parks so the papparazzi can follow her ahd capture every image and then she tried to get up holding two of them an literally almost drops a baby.. she just has NO common sense and she continually has to restate things she says, that had been "exaggerated" to use her words, so no one can believe a thing she says. I think her father is collecting the money, he paid for the house, that way she can stay on benefits she otherwise wouldn't be able to get. I mean how many women would be having surgery to make sure they could get pregnant more easily, after 14 kids?

Sea, I can certainly sympathize with your concerns. And I'm not refuting that the woman is a nutbar, particularly when it comes to breeding offspring like a human conveyor belt. That's exactly WHY I hope there's some way she's overseen 24/7 so the kids won't be endangered by her lack of common sense or neglect. If a reality tv series is what will do the trick effectively, then fine by me. At least she won't be a charity-case anymore.

ETA: I do predict that at some point she will most likely lose custody of them. It's just a matter of time, IMHO. I'm just conflicted about it, having been in foster homes myself.

I do wish they'd invoke the child actor rules and make her put part of the money in trust for each of the 14 children. If she earns money based on the lives of the children, she shouldn't be allowed to spend it on expensive clothes and spas.

LOL. They could have teeny little SAG cards for all the kids. Money in trust that she couldn't control would be good.

I think that the media has made her a big deal...I really could care less about her or her kids for that matter....I'm not heartless but ..It was her decision to have all those kids and so this is her battle, not mine. Of course I want the kids to be well taken care of and 'honestly' I have no question that they will be well provided for, never go hungry and will have clothes on their backs..."much more than many other children in this world"...I don't think they should be taken away from her or separated from each other...that would be so traumatic for them.... People will always be watching her so it is very unlikely that they will be abused or neglected....and she will always have people around her so those kids will be more protected from this unfair world (im thinking of children that don't even have a home, that live in shelters and truly know what it is like to be without).. Why are we so anxious to remove them from her.... because she likes her nails done and starbucks....If she has someone watching her kids and they are safe....'I think that's called a baby sitter' .. When we just start scooping in -taking babies- because we don't like the way someone is or the choices they made.... well then get ready cause you open the door to more laws that will take away our rights. and I have a question.. I watch allot of these reality shows cause they are always on at my gym...today there was some show called Gotti's way and they have all their kids on it... of course the other shows with Kate and all her kids and I know there are a bunch more.... what about them, why are we not up in arms about them.. are they getting a paycheck?...or does pimping out your kids only apply to Nadia.. what about those moms that put their kids in those beauty pageants...dressing them like little child porn stars...."we should def take those kids from their families, ack" anyway I'm just so tired of hearing about her, but some of the comments are just getting to me. And I do believe in Ca. that if you are on welfare you have to report any income that you make and If she is making a certain amount than she prob is not able to get welfare...now the kids getting SSID will prob still get that but ?? It would be pretty hard to hide any income that she receives from welfare - cause she is all over the news, they are watching her. And yes, I do think she is a Nut case and made very bad choices.... I have no idea what her mental state is....... But what's done is done... So if a reality show would provide for her family than why not...its more than welfare...and people will always be around so there is no 'lack' of eyes....and we would all prob watch just to see what happens...

If children who are too young to make an informed decision (under 18) about being on television, earn any money from being on television, the money earned should be put in trust for them. AND anyone who puts a child in a beauty contest should not only have the kid taken away, but they should be put in jail for child abuse. OK a little extreme, but those contests are just sick!

Child actors' parents do get an allowance for the child's living expenses, but it is overseen by a court. The parents have to follow strict guidelines as to how much money they use towards the child's upkeep. In the case where the parents are also "actors" on the show, one would think they also get a portion of the money as their stipend for the work. But some of the money generated by the show should be set aside for the children to use when they are adults.

But are you considered an actor when it is a reality show and would the law apply here?

SORRY TO BRING THIS THREAD BACK TO THE SURFACE. Octuplet mom Nadya Suleman says she's "excited" about filming a reality show featuring her life with 14 children. Suleman -- who attracted worldwide attention after giving birth to octuplets on January 26 -- has signed a deal with British production company Eyeworks, which will produce the reality TV series, People magazine reports. "I'm really excited about moving forward with this," Suleman said. Her attorney, Jeff Czech, calls the series a "quasi-reality" show, explaining that instead of having cameras around 24 hours a day, film crews will only document select occasions, such as birthdays and other special events. Czech tells People that Suleman doesn't want her series to resemble the much-publicized "Jon & Kate Plus 8," the TLC reality show featuring Jon and Kate Gosselin and their eight kids. "She's been watching them a bit lately and thinks it's boring," Czech says. Suleman also finalized a deal this week with ghostwriter Wendy Lee -- who recently wrote Life with My Sister Madonna with Christopher Ciccone -- to pen her autobiography, People

she doesnt want them around 24 hours because she only wants us to see the framed picture perfect moments in her life. Her show like her will be delusional
