35-Year-Old Woman Has Been Pregnant For Nearly 17 Years

Most pregnancies last a little over nine months, and after that point, plenty moms-to-be are beyond ready to be finished with being pregnant. But that's not always the case, and it certainly wasn't for 35-year-old Britni Church . Britni gave birth to her first child in 2004 when she was 16 and has had a kid just about every year since then, up through 2022. That means a dozen children.

The mom of 12 spoke about her brood to TODAY Parents , saying, "I think I'm done," but her husband, Chris , wouldn't mind having more . Britni and Chris share nine-year-old Silas , seven-year-old Christopher , five-year-old triplets Oliver , Asher and Abel , and three-year-old Rowyn . Britni also has 19-year-old Crizman , 18-year-old Jordan , 16-year-old Caleb , 15-year-old Jace , 14-year-old Cadence and 12-year-old Jesalyn from previous relationships.

Not surprisingly, caring for five girls and seven boys is no easy task. Britni, who remarkably has spent nearly 98 months of her life pregnant , spends $200 monthly on milk alone.

She described her house saying, "There's always noise. Someone is always screaming . But it's just normal for us. I'm able to drown it out somehow." She went on to say, "We are happiest when we’re all together. We’ve got a big waterslide and we've been having cookouts and sitting around the fire pit. Life is good."
