yes
The highest officially recorded number of children born to one mother is 69, to the first wife of Feodor Vassilyev (1707-1782) of Shuya, Russia. Between 1725 and 1765, in a total of 27 confinements, she gave birth to 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets, and four sets of quadruplets. 67 of them survived infancy.
The modern world record for giving birth is held by Leontina Albina from San Antonio, Chile. Leontina claims to be the mother of 64 children, of which only 55 of them are documented. She is listed in the 1999 Guinness World Records but dropped from later editions.

I was gonna say exactly what Kaci said!
Think about it. If a woman started having babies at 20 and had one every year, she's only be 40 by the time she had her 20th. Of course its possible. I personally couldn't imagine doing it, but its possible.

Of course. It's happened in the past, and the Duggar family just had baby number 17... I doubt that they'll stop there, either.
It's hard on your body, though. I certainly wouldn't recommend it!

unless you have one baby a year. maybe. but it takes 10 months for baby to be born... But why would people wanted that much baby... For the world record or something and you need to have a lot of money for 20 babies.

Yes.
The Duggars just had their 17th child, and I don't believe they started terribly young, nor are they done yet.
Their children are an average of 18 months apart which isn't that insane.

Possible, there's a woman in I believe it's Arkansas that just had her 17th child. I cannot imagine having that many, you'd have to have one every year..........

Yes, the Duggar family is just three babies away from that very goal.
Of course her uterus must look like hamburger meat by now, but who cares! They are repopulating Arkansas!

can happen just like others are saying with the dugger family with her having seventeen all she needs to do is have triplets and she would have 20.
