German woman, 65 and mother of 13, has quadruplets
A 65-year-old German woman, who is already a mother of 13 children, has given birth to quadruplets after undergoing an artificial insemination procedure in Ukraine, RTL television reported early on Saturday.
The three boys and one girl were born premature at 26 weeks in a Berlin hospital but have “good chances of surviving,” the report said.
The mother, Berlin resident Annegret Raunigk, is an English and Russian teacher close to retirement and in addition to her 13 children is grandmother to seven.
She became pregnant after undergoing several artificial insemination procedures in Ukraine, said RTL, which has negotiated exclusive rights on the story.

Congrats ? mama quadruplets! But I thought European country like Germany advocates limited number of children, how come unbridled child bearings? It’s well, the glory is God’s!
with God all things are possible. But what is the point in having new children after having 13?
We will review and take appropriate action.
