Mother of 7 is pregnant with her 8th child at 30 and she wants more #GirlTalkZA #mcdeeznazomeals

A pregnant mum-of-7 has hit back at cruel trolls who have told her to "stop breeding."


Mercedes Lynn, who is 30-years-old, explained how she had had seven kids via C-section and has another one planned for her eighth baby, who is due in a matter of days.

Taking to TikTok (@mercedeslynnnn7), she responded to a troll who wrote: "Stop breeding."

As each of her children appears in front of the camera one-by-one, she says: "For those that are new here, I've had 8 kids via 8 C-sections at ages: 17, 19, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28.

"Baby number 8 due in 10 days at age of 30!"

Mercedes then goes on to explain each of her C-sections and says her first born was an emergency at 42 weeks, then baby number two through to five was planned at 39 weeks.

Continuing, she says baby number six was an emergency C-section at 37 weeks due to the uterine window and number seven was 36ish weeks to "play it safe."

Mercedes then adds how she's got a planned C-section for her eight baby at 37 weeks next month.

The post has since gone viral, racking up a whopping 739 views and several comments from social media users – with very mixed responses.
