A mum-of-15 has delivered her 16th baby – and all of the children have names beginning with the letter ‘C’.
Patty Hernandez, 39, from Charlotte, North Carolina, USA, continues her unique family tradition by naming her baby Clayton.
She named all of her children with the same first letter in honor of their 38-year-old father, Carlo
The mum-of-15 never thought she would have such a large family, but doesn’t use contraception and says she loves being pregnant, having spent a decade of her life carrying a child.
Here’s the full list of the couple’s offspring. Ready?
Carlos Jr, 13, Christopher, 12, Carla, 10, Caitlyn, 10, Cristian, 9, Celeste, 8, Cristina, 7, Calvin, 6, Catherine, 6, Carol, 5, Caleb, 4, Caroline, 4, Camilla, 3, Charlie, 1, and Crystal, four months.
Patty, who runs her own cleaning company, said she feels like her huge family is a ‘blessing’ from God.
She added: “God has blessed us with all these kids, I know some people don’t agree and there are nasty comments online but for us it’s a big blessing.
Carlos was by his wife’s side on May 5 when she gave birth to Clayton, he weighed 3.6 kg.
Patty was at 40 weeks pregnant when she gave birth – her longest pregnancy.
Patty said most of the nurses at the hospital recognized her when she was admitted for labor.
Patty and her husband currently spend around US$13 million on their children’s food every two weeks, but she stresses that they are not receiving government support.
The couple earns enough from their cleaning business to pay the bills, and they hope their eldest son Carlos Jr., 13, will soon be able to help out at the family company.
