The woman who recently gave birth to octuplets came out of hiding and gave an exclusive interview to Ann Curry from the Today Show.

Nadya Suleman spoke with Ann Curry in New York on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2009, her first interview since giving birth to octuplets last week. The interview is planned to be broadcast on the ‘Today’ show on Monday, Feb. 9 and ‘Dateline’ on Tuesday, Feb. 10. The Octuplet mom, who confirms all 14 of her children were born via In Vitro, explains why she had so many kids:

“That was always a dream of mine, to have a large family, a huge family…I just longed for certain connections and attachments with another person that … I really lacked, I believe, growing up.”

And who is going to help this single mom raise her kids? Not me…
