Octuplet mom Nadya Suleman told many lies in her interview with Ann Curry. She said that she hadn’t had any plastic surgery or lip augmentation, that she wasn’t relying on taxpayer money despite the fact that she receives food stamps and three out of six of her older children are on disability, and she denied an obsession with Angelina Jolie. She also said that the same doctor implanted her with “the same” number of embryos each time she was pregnant, six, and that this time it just “worked a little too well.”

Nadya’s mother Angela denies that her daughter went to the same IVF doctor this last time. Angela, the primary caregiver for Nadya’s six older children, claimed that she and her husband spoke to the doctor and pleaded with him not to work with Nadya again to implant her with more children she couldn’t care for. The result is that Nadya doctor shopped until she found someone willing to implant her with all the remaining embryos she had left over from earlier IVF treatments, according to her mother.

According to Nadya, she used the same guy each time and he always used six embryos at a pop, but the sneaky way she words this really makes it sound to me like she had more implanted this last time.

unequivically – I went to the same physician where I was comfortable and the same thing was done. This was just a completely different outcome

Dr. Kamrava declined out request for an interview.

Nadya says her doctor routinely transferred about six embyros because of her troubled medical history, which she says lowered the odds that any embryos would survive.. And that’s what she says happened in the procedure that led to the octuplets.

Ann Curry: You didn’t want just one or two embryos?

Nadya Suleman: Of course not. I wanted them all transferred. Those are my – those are my children. And that’s what was available. And I used ’em. So, I took a risk. It’s a gamble. It always is.

Now Dr. Kamrava, the fertility doctor who thought it was a great idea to implant a single mother of six children with six embryos (or was it seven?) is under investigation. He recently implanted a 49 year-old woman with seven embryos, which resulted in quadruplets. The recommendation for women over 35 is that they be implanted with two or less embryos due to potential medical complications:

The fertility doctor that helped Nadya Suleman give birth to octuplets also provided treatment to a 49-year-old woman who is pregnant with quadruplets, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Sources tell the newspaper that Dr. Michael Kamrava implanted at least seven embryos from younger donor eggs into the woman, who is currently hospitalized.

“I do think it is concerning, and dangerous, especially to the mother,” a doctor familiar with the case told the Times. “She is close to 50. When women get to be that age, our fear is the cardiovascular complications, such as stroke or heart attack. That’s how serious this is.”

Suleman told the Today Show’s Ann Curry she was implanted with six embryos, some of which split.

Kamrava is under investigation by the California Medical Board and American Society for Reproductive Medicine, which recommends women under 35 are implanted with no more than two embryos.

Nadya Suleman has a history of lying through her teeth, so I would bet that her mom is correct and she got implanted by a different doctor with all those leftover day old embryos she couldn’t bear to leave sitting there. No matter what happened, this guy needs to lose his license to say the least. Doctor Kamrava has been sued at least six times in malpractice cases brought against him by former patients, according to legal documents uncovered by Splash photo agency. He’s also been sued twice by employees, and had to pay out $275,000 to a former embryologist he worked with who sued him for breach of contract. The embryologist claimed he fired her after she complained about the secrecy surrounding his work.

Meanwhile the Octomom was seen out along without any of her six older children at a video game store buying games. Nice to know where those donations and tax dollars are going, although she’s probably spending NBC’s money at this point.
