It's been one year since Nadya Suleman gave birth to octuplets and she did some reflecting recently on raising 14 children.

Here are some HIGHlights:

On resting:

"I don't get much sleep. About two or three hours a night. But I'm continuing to move forward with my life and trying to be the best mother I can be."

On growing up:

"I've definitely matured a lot. When this started, it was all about me. But now I find myself in a situation where I have to support a large family and take care of a large household. I've been through more in the past year than most people go through in a lifetime.

"I've been sued, harassed, abused, but I've held my own. I think about others now and not so much about myself. I spend more time thinking about paying bills, paying my mortgage and paying attention."

On parenting challenges:

"One of the biggest challenges is bonding with my babies. I need the help of my nannies, but I don't want my children being raised in something that resembles a group home."

On fitness and going to the gym:

"I go several times a week, usually in the middle of the night when everyone is asleep. I push myself pretty hard. I'm lucky. I've got good genes and my body just always seems to bounce back after my pregnancies."

On the octuplets' birthday:

"It'll be a quiet celebration. You definitely won't find a bouncy house here … We had birthday cake and pizza on Sunday. It was quite a mess, quite a mess."

On if she'd do it all again:

"No, no, no … I love kids, but I also recognize that things could be better for mine. I never planned on eight. I wanted one or maybe two more. But I had eight. It's not the best situation, but I'm doing what I can do."

She still sounds insane to us!

      old news.



    3. 3

      shut up, bitch. you are destroying 14 children through your selfishness. you are a disgrace to womankind. those kids are going to grow up so fucked up they will become society's problem. fuck you.



    4. 4

      Actually…she doesn't sound as crazy as she did when this all started. It kinda sounds like she has had a reality check. Hopefully shes pulled it together for the sake of the kids!



    5. 5

      They seemed quite rational to me.

      -
      I want to violate every orifice on that woman's body
      -
      I know, I'm crazy - I don't even find her pretty plus she is dumb as a post and crazy as a loon but i want to bang her SOOOOO bad

      Somehow she an afford all of this without TLC or taxpayers support, so keep up the good work. She has staff to help care for the kids…..kids are fine….she may have been crazy before but she seems to have found sanity. 14 kids in her situation was insane….but somehow she has made it work against the odds. I hope that she writes a best selling book about time management for busy mothers someday. She left crazy behind. ( unless she has more babies. )

      Re: tigrrrlilly – She just admitted it was all about her at first… and pretty much admitted she was wrong…



    9. 9

      tigrrrlilly actually you sounch like the crazy one here…why all the anomosity??? It's not like she asking you to take care of them and don't give me all this welfare nonsense…this woman has made alot of money since giving birth to those kids. Im sure she doesn't even qualify.

      This has got to be one of the most DISGUSTING people I have ever laid eyes on, right next to Heidi Montag. It was all about being famous for her!! IT STILL IS!!!!!!!! She sets up these pathetic photo ops in her FRONT YARD dressed in a slutty santa getup and tries to shove herself down everyone's throats constantly!! I don't care WHAT she says she is a DISGUSTING HUMAN BEING that needs to shut her mouth AND her legs (popping the babies out) she is so mental it's insane she got to keep all those kids……and then also the bragging about her body….."it's all natural no plastic surgery" yeah sure, as real as your face supposedly is huh?? She lies about that too!!! Like the whole world is either BLIND or RETARDED!!! GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOO GROSS!!!!!!!!

      Re: KrystinMyrie – I agree. I dont think she sounds insane at all here…

    13. ommmz says – reply to this

      wow… learning to focus on others. (the first 6 kids didn't count, obviously). learning responsibility ("raising" 14 children without savings, income, or a supportive network; now THAT's responsibility)
      i know we all get stupid once in a while and let whoever's sinless cast the first stone… but this woman is seriously delusional and obnoxious narcissistic. she sounds like she's still 16 years old and just got her driver's license; all this bull crap about learning "responsibility" and "caring for others".
      you are a "mother" for goodness sake!



    14. 14

      She's lies. If she didn't want 8 children, she shouldn't have had 8 embryo's implanted. She knew EXACTLY what she was doing.



    15. 15

      All I can say is that I feel for those poor kids! She is outrageous and those kids should ALL be taken away.



    16. 16

      shes disgusting, and i dispise her, those kids are gonna need counselling.

      "oh gee im on wellfare, and im single, ima hav lotsa babies!" great idea there fuckin idiot.



    17. 17

      Too me, it sounds like she's seen her mistake - but can't go back and change it, so she's doing the best she can now after having to face the truth… I think she's come a long way.



    18. 18

      Don't agree with what's she's done but your comment about her still sounding insane is off the mark. She actually sounds pretty lucid and realistic. She might be faking but once again you can't say the comments are insane



    19. 19

      Can't help it, I like Nadia. I think she is trying. I respect the fact that she did not want to see the embryos destroyed. THAT WAS HER RIGHT PEEPS! She did not expect all of them to survive, but she did the right thing and it is her CHOICE!



    20. 20

      Re: supersongbird – You are soooo wrong! She is trying to keep her family together and going the best she can in a world that is hostile towards women. She is not abusive. How can you say that when there are so many kids in far worse situations. You will never get it though, so why am I trying.



    21. 21

      Did she get a job yet or is she still living off of tax payers money??



    22. 22

      Wow, actually sounds.. mature or whatever. I buy it anyway, haha.
      Well good for her, she seems more grown up/mature now.



    23. 23

      The bitch looks so damn pasty and scary lookin. Her breasts and hands and body are misshapen. That woman is tore up from the floor up with her lipo tummy ass!

    24. P <3 says – reply to this


      24

      ughhh can you not write about this woman! she's stupid and gross and a celeb whore and your feedingggg her celeb cravings!!!



    25. 25

      I like how she claims that she only wanted one or two… what a liar.
      What she wanted was media attention, and for some reason we gave it to her! Now 14 children are suffering for it.
      Her children should be taken from her. She is fucking nuts.



    26. 26

      I didnt read this how could you? She is truly insane and shouldnt have those children or ANY PRESS time what-so-eva!!!! jeez what is wrong with America this woman is Psycho!



    27. 27

      Oh come on…Stop with the non-stop lying Octo Slob. We all KNOW you had lipo and a tummy tuck, plus whatever god awful thing you have done with your lips.

      You are NOT supporting yourself or your kids. You get government assistance (SSI and food stamps), plus you beg the public for donations. Nice to know that you are JUST NOW thinkig about how you are going to pay for this utter mess you have created. Shouldn't you have thought of that before you got in-vitro over and over and over again???? This woman is so insane it is not even funny.
      Funny how she says that it used to be "all about her" but not anymore. Read that post. She does nothing but talk about herself non stop.
      Do us all huge favor and stop posting on her Perez. She is ugly, insane and it makes everybody sick just looking at picutures of her lying ass.
      Oh…and that gym she works out at? She stiffed them on the bill and they wanted to kick her out until some dumbshit paid her bill for her. Story of her life…she F's up and somebody comes alog to wipe up the shit.



    28. 28

      I'm actually saying this…."Good for her". Yep, reality bites. But she has healthy, beautiful children who are loved.



    29. 29

      Oh..and she says "I never planned on eight. I wanted one or maybe two more. But I had eight. It's not the best situation, but I'm doing what I can do."

      Why would any sane peson want even ONE more kid when they already had SIX at home that they could not even begin to feed, clothe, house and provide medical care for? She has no job, no husband and no way to pay for all these kids without eithr begging the public for donations, going on welfare and food stamps or trying to get some lame reality show. When she dies she needs to will her brain to science. I love to see want an EEG done on her would look like.
      Stupid dumb, insane, lying welfare and disability fraud and cheat.



    30. 30

      This woman is a REAL single mother trying to raise 14 kids with out a flim crew,nannys,maids,cooks and a yard crew.Shes home with her kids not running around getting her hair and nails done like another piece of shit abuser of a mother we know *cough* kate. I like octo-mom shes real…what you see is what you get with her.



    31. 31

      If I never see this revolting woman ever again it won't be soon enough. It still shocks and disgusts me that a mentally unstable single mother with 6 kids was legally able to get herself impregnated with 8 embryos.



    32. 32

      That is one giant Fivehead she's got there!! Girl's gotta get some bangs & try to cover it up. She is still incredibly nasty looking too, losing weight didn't help.



    33. 33

      Does she has vitiligo??? look at the brown spot at her neck…now I wonder why her creepy pale skin always reminds me Michael Jackson…



    34. 34

      She's finally starting to not think about herself a year after her 14th kid was born. It's about freaking time!! And now she's spending more time thinking about paying her bills & mortgage, what a hero! Those poor kids should be taken away immediately.



    35. 35

      I hate this stupid bi!#h sooo much! If she really thinks anyone believes she lost all that baby weight and has no stretch marks without the help of plastic surgery then she is crazier than i thought.



    36. 36

      she sounds sensible to me!!

      Dumb for having them but hey theyre here now. I dont see how hating on her and harassing her helps anybody, least of all those babies.

      She needs support.



    37. 37

      She sounds like someone trying to make the best of it you IDIOT!



    38. 38

      shes so sexy and hasnt ended up in the hospital with 8 inch cuts on her arms!! (YET) amazing!!
