The largest number of children born to one mother was recorded between 1725 and 1765.the Record — 69 children, belongs to the wife of the Russian peasant Fyodor Vasiliev from Shui district. The mother gave birth twenty-seven times, while twins sixteen times, triplets seven times, and four times the quadruplets. And only two children died in infancy. February 27, 1782 about this unique mother and her family from St. Nicholas monastery was reported to Moscow. Even Catherine II herself (the Great) noted this phenomenon of childbirth.
This record, established more than two hundred years ago, a simple Russian peasant, still no one managed to beat.
