US-based Heather Stockton shared how she’s been pregnant in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2024 and 2025.

On her @heatherruth account, she joked: “2007 and 2023 were my years of rest.”

While many people questioned why she doesn’t have 21 kids as a result, others pointed that you can be pregnant over the course of two years, even if each pregnancy is just nine months. 

Many people were flabbergasted at the staggering amount of time she has been pregnant. 

One said: “Pregnancy addiction needs to be studied.”

Another added: “It’s ok to be on birth control.”

And a third commented: “So basically your whole life?……..ok!”

However, despite any negative comments, Heather insisted that she loves her busy life and large family.

She shared: “Hi! My name is Heather. 

“I am happily married and a mum to 11 kids.
