A mother of 11 has гeⱱeаɩed she is deѕрeгаte for more children, even though she’s spent almost a decade of her life being pregnant.
Britni Church, 31, from Arkansas City, Kansas, had her first child, daughter Crizman, just a few days after her 16th birthday. She has since welcomed 10 more children -Jordan, 14, Caleb, 13, Jace, 12, Cadence 10, Jesalyn, eight, Christopher, three, and one-year-old triplets Oliver, Asher and Abel – and has spent a total of 10 years pregnant.
However despite the ѕtгаіп of having a super-size family – and the extra-large bills – Britni, who is married to husband Chris, admitted she wants to add to her brood and would want as many as 15 children.
