Supermum Sue Radford Expecting Child Number Seventeen

Quite how she does it, we're not sure.

But it turns out that the mum of the UK's biggest family is pregnant with her 17th child!
 
At the same time as her daughter...

 
Supermum Sue Radford, 39, who has nine sons and seven daughters, is looking forward to her family's newest addition, after finding out she was pregnant in March.
 
While Sue, whose family featured on Channel Four show '16 Kids and Counting', is expecting baby number 17 in November, her 20-year-old daughter Sophie is excited for her new arrival due five weeks earlier.
 
"It's been fantastic being pregnant the same time as Sophie," said Sue, "She really helps to keep me calm."

 
"I worried constantly during my last pregnancy," she continued, "but instead of doing the same this time, I just keep saying that what will be, will be.
 
"We are craving all of the same things too," she revealed, "particularly junk food like cream cakes, chocolate and ice lollies."
 
"We just laugh and say at least we'll get fat together."

The pair went for a scan together two weeks ago and they said they were both "thrilled" to hear both babies are doing well.
 
"No matter how many scans you have," she said of the experience," it really is amazing to see a little life
growing inside you."

 
Sue is mum to Chris, 25, Sophie, 20, Chloe, 18, Jack, 17, Daniel, 15, Luke, 13, Millie, 12, Katie, 11, James, ten, Ellie, nine, Aimee, eight, Josh, seven, Max, five Tilly, four, Oscar, two, and Casper, one.

The Radfords, who run a bakery and are completely self-sufficient, receive no state benefits.
 
Incredibly, each day the family eats three loaves of bread, two boxes of cereal and 18 pints of milk, while an average supper can include 16 pork chops, 15lbs of potatoes, three cabbages and 30 carrots.
