MEXICO CITY – California native Nadya Suleman who went in the history book of multiple births when she gave birth to eight babies is being dethroned by a Mexican mother who is expecting nine babies.

Known as ‘nonuplets’ (nine births), Karla Vanessa Perez of the northeastern state of Coahuila, Mexico, which borders the state of Texas, U.S., is expecting six girls and three boys.

Perez, whose age was not given, had fertility treatment leading to the multiple pregnancy and is due to give birth on May 20th.

Perez told the state-owned news agency Notimex “It’s very early to think of names for the babies. First I hope that everything goes well.”

The successful delivery of nonuplets would be one of the highest multiple births ever recorded.

In 2009, Nadya Suleman gave birth to eight babies, six boys and two girls.

At the time they were called the longest surviving set of octuplets in US history.
