I was watching a show last night that said the most children ever born to one woman was 69! I had a conversation about this with a co- worker and both she and I are incredulous that this could ever be possible. My co- worker quickly did the math and figured out that this woman would probably have to have been continuously pregnant for 40- some years or thereabouts and/ or had multiples for several of those pregnancies. Has anyone ever heard this? Do you know the truth behind it or can you give me a reference to something similar?

Thanks!!!!

I'm curious as to how very tall, or very heavy people are accommodated in coffins.. My father in law was almost 7 ft tall and it really looked like he was laid out in a normal coffin but this would mean the necessity of bending his legs at the knees.. It may be creepy, but I wonder how this is handled.. Same for someone very very heavy, say 550 lbs... They would be almost impossible to handle with normal equipment..

I've been sleeping a ridiculous amount lately. I wake up at 6am, work until 5, and then take a nap when I get home. I wake up from the nap usually around 7:30, and then I am tired again at 9 and usually end up going to bed at 9:30. I have never had such awful sleep patterns before, there is no change in my diet, and I have not changed where I sleep.

Aside from drinking coffee, which I'm trying to avoid because it makes me very anxious, can you give any suggestions that will help me stay awake and alert?

If it helps, my job isn't very stressful, and I find myself droopy-eyed when the workload is minimal.

I have been getting nausea for about 6 months now and no medication will help it, it happens every day for more then half the day, when I push on my upper part of my stomach it hurts pretty bad. I have had ultrasounds done to check for gallstones but they came back normal...... If anyone has any ideas what I should tell them to check for or if you have ever had any of these symptoms tell me what you found out? Thanks!

A lot of times when I stand up, my vision turns brownish, and I get an ache in my forehead area. I feel like I'm going to pass out, but never do. It subsides in a few seconds. Normally I'd get an occurrence of this once in a while, but lately it's been doing it pretty much at least once a day.

I have no history of medical problems and I don't have diabetes. I get enough to eat.
