Couple Welcomes Baby With 12 Functioning Fingers, 12 Toes

---

A San Francisco couple is beaming after becoming the proud parents of a healthy but incredibly rare baby boy this month.

Baby Kamani Hubbard has six-fully formed and functional fingers and toes on his hands and feet. The condition, called “polydactyly”, is not an uncommon genetic trait, but doctors say they’ve never seen a case so remarkable.

When the baby arrived three weeks ago, he seemed so perfect at birth no one noticed.

Because he looked so normal, hospital staff only told Miryoki Gross, Kamani’s mom that the he was six pounds in good health.

It wasn’t until his dad Kris Hubbard noticed this spectacularly rare case of polydactyly: 6-perfect fingers on each hand and 6-perfect toes on each foot.

Some family members of his family have had six fingers, not completely developed.

In fact Kris Hubbard himself had nubs of sixth fingers removed as a child as these non-functional digits routinely are.

The unusual part about this case is that the new baby’s extra digits are functional.

“It’s merely an interesting and beautiful variation rather than a worrisome thing,” said Dr. Michael Treece and St. Luke’s Hospital Pediatrician. “I would be tempted to leave those fingers in place. I realize children would tease each other over the slightest things, and having extra digits on each hand is more than slight. But imagine what sort of a pianist a 12-fingered person would be imagine what sort of a flamenco guitarist, if nothing else think of their typing skills.”

This little guy is so cute, I bet no one would even notice unless someone showed them…Related Articles:

Alyson Hannigan Has ‘Pregnancy Brain’

---

During her appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Friday, Alyson Hannigan revealed that she is finding that being pregnant not only gives her cravings – but makes her feel like a stoned Koala bear.

“I get tired a lot and I have pregnancy brain, which I never realized was a thing but it is,” the expectant mom told the host. “I sort of feel like a Koala bear where I’m slightly stoned all the time and I’ll say the wrong word.”

Not one to miss a good comeback, Ellen DeGeneres responds,

“I’m not pregnant, but I have that brain too. I don’t have an excuse.”

The mom-to-be also told the host about her not so weird craving,

“[I crave] ginger ale big time,” she said. “I didn’t drink soda before and suddenly it was like, ‘I need a ginger ale,’ and surprisingly my mother craved ginger ale when she was pregnant with me as well.”

Octuplets Mom ‘Obsessed With Having Children’

---

The world was amazed this week after Californian mom Nadya Suleman, 33, welcomed octuplets, the second set ever born in the U.S.

But the amazement quickly turned to concern after it was revealed the the 8 new babies would be joining their 6 siblings, who are all under the age 7.

Yesterday the octuplets grandma revealed that all of the babies we actually implanted and not the result of fertility drugs as previously suspected.

Today, Angela Suleman is speaking out about her daughter’s addiction to having kids saying that she conceived all 14 of her babies through in vitro fertilization. The soon to be busy mom isn’t married and has been fixated on being a mother since she was a teenager.

Last year, Nadya Suleman decided to have more embryos implanted, hoping to have “just one more girl,” her mother told The Los Angeles Times.

“And look what happened. Octuplets. Dear God,” Angela Suleman told the newspaper Friday.

She said she wasn’t supportive of her daughter’s decision to try to get pregnant again.

“It can’t go on any longer,” the grandmother told the AP. “She’s got six children and no husband. I was brought up the traditional way. I firmly believe in marriage. But she didn’t want to get married.”

It wasn’t clear whether the octuplets mother was ever married. Nadya is divorced but the ex-husband isn’t the babies’ father.

All 14 children were conceived using the same sperm donor.

I do not believe that this story can get any crazier… While it is not for us to judge, I want to know who thought it was ok to implant this many embryos into someone who already has done this 5 times before.SOURCE

Best 6-Year Old Birthday Present: Dad Home From Iraq In A Box!

---

Gabriel Hurles will never forget his 6th birthday.

While celebrating the big occasion with his friends, the lucky little boy peeled back the wrapping paper on a big box to find the surprise of his young life.

‘It’s my dad!’ he announced joyfully to his classmates at Sutro Elementary School in Dayton, Nevada. ‘Hi, Daddy!’

Army mechanic Casey Hurles, 23, who was hiding inside the box, hadn’t seen his son since he left in June.

When he learned his leave would coincide with his son’s birthday, he hatched a plan to hide out in the big box.

‘It was such a rush of emotion,’ said Hurles, who said he got butterflies in his stomach while waiting in the box.

After the excited daddy sat down and ate a cupcake with the birthday boy, teacher Dawn VanSickle presented him with a banner from the class that read, ‘Welcome Home. Thank you for your service.’

Mega Multiples On The Rise: Syria Welcomes 2 Sets Of Quints In 3 Days

---

A woman in the Syrian capital of Damascus has given birth to quintuplets, marking the second such birth in Syria during a three-day period, a doctor says.

Gynecologist Kana’an al-Saqa said Thursday that a 36-year-old woman, whose identity was not reported, gave birth to four girls and a boy at Damascus’ Maternity Hospital.

The babies arrived by Caesarean section after 34 weeks of pregnancy.

While quintuplet births used to only occur once for every 50 million people, the country saw a similar birth Tuesday when a woman from al-Raqa city gave birth to two boys and three girls.If I had of covered this story last year, 2 sets of quints in one week would be unusual, but this year – for some reason – it doesn’t seem to unique…It’s like celebrities who are having twins…

Report: Octuplets Mom Already Has 6 Kids

---

CBS News reported today that the California woman who astonished doctors earlier this week by giving birth to octuplets at a suburban Los Angeles hospital already has six other children.

The unidentified woman delivered six boys and two girls prematurely by Caesarean section on Monday, surprising doctors who had been expecting seven babies.

Two unnamed acquaintances told the a CBS reporter, who visited the woman’s Los Angeles-area home, that the mother already has six other children.

One of those acquaintances said that the mother lived with her parents and that two of her other children were twins.

“She is young,” the acquaintance says, “fairly young. She has six children already. And in those six children, she has a set of twins.”

A man, who came to the door of the family home, confirmed to CBS reporter that he’s the grandfather of the octuplets, but refused to speak to her.

“From what you know about this family, and this household, do you think they’ll be able to support 14 kids?” the reporter asked the acquaintance.”Well,” she responded, “so far, they’ve been fine with the six they have. Fourteen I don’t know.”

If this is true, it is heartbreaking to know that someone would put themselves in this situation on purpose when they should be caring for their other children.How does one pay for 8 or even 14 kids without a lot of assistance?
