Woman gives birth to 10 ‘dead’ babies
A 28-year-old woman from Satna district of Madhya Pradesh has reportedly broken all the Indian medical records after giving birth to 10 babies at a time, on Sunday late night. But, none survived.
This is said to be the largest ever reported number of fetuses in one womb, at least in India so far as a doctor in Rome once claimed that he has removed 15 fetuses from a woman in 1971.
Anju Kushwaha, a resident of Koti village in Satna was referred to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial (SGM) hospital in Rewa district - located 125km from her village - following medical complications on Sunday evening.

"She delivered nine of them midway. Obstetric and NICU team at our hospital helped her to deliver the 10th one in the operation theatre - all were born dead at almost 12 weeks" said Dr SK Pathak, assistant superintendent of the hospital told TOI.
She reached hospital at around 11pm with her husband Sanjay who was carrying nine premature offspring's wrapped in a piece of cloth. The last one was delivered at around 12.31am.

While there was a long queue outside the maternity ward to have a glimpse of the mother and set of her multiple offspring's, doctors at the hospital decided to submit a new research paper on this particular case of high order multi-foetal pregnancy. Dr Pathak said that Anju had undergone fertility treatments.
