Special Tribute;  March Women’s Month Moment

This special woman
In her family tree
Had 69 children
How can that be
Let’s do the math
and we shall see

Valentina, Vassilyev is it in the
Guinness world book of record history
for the most children born by a single mother .
How is this possible a true mystery

Between 1725 and 1765 40 years
Through laughter love and tears
A Russian peasant woman thrive
Giving birth to 69 children alive

This special woman
in her family tree she had 69 children.
How can that be?
Let’s do the math and then we’ll see

16 pairs of twins (32)

7 sets of triplets (21)

4 sets of quadruplets (16)

Total pregnancies, 27

Surviving children 67 out of 69 survived infancy

The father Feodor Vassilyev who was said to
Have fathered 87 children 69 with Valentina
And 18 with his second wife.(multiple wives)

Although Guinness Would Record confirmed
Many in the medical world have doubts.
1700s Russia, a period of history
in which data reveals over

a quarter to half of all children died in infancy.
Director of division of reproductive services and women’s health at John Hopkins.sights
lack of records a big hole in their story

Stealing the mother’s triumphant Glory
Honestly they just don’t know the whole story
And there, in lies the seed of suspicions
What about woman’s intrusion

Is this the case of trying to rewrite history?
Forever shroud in myths and mystery
God did say go forth and multiply
It was confirmed so now why is it a lie?

I do raise the suspicion in triplets and quadruplets that would be harder to carry those are typically followed by lower birth rates in a time when babies did not survive. Perhaps her did thrive!

I was told stories of girls getting married age 15-16
Since the age of 18, mothers gave birth 13 months apart that’s a start. I believe this could be true.
Generations had different family values who knew

What do you believe
truth or myth to deceive
What about it?
Yay or Nay

Footnotes
A woman is made for child bearing
Breastfeeding and caring with love
How would you feed 4 hungry babies
20 minute intervals two per side

Anyone who breast-fed knows
it’s a Suppy in demand situation
Her ******* had to be huge
rock, hard full of milk always

If you start to break it down
It would take a village a town
Community’s were closer back then
More the we spoil women can comprehend
