I think they're doing dang well for the situation.
Well, many many many women who undergo fertility treatments and have huge multiple pregnancies DO choose to reduce the number of fetuses. It's the doctor's standard recommendation AFAIK. Of course in many cases some of the fetuses will die anyway before birth because it's just not a good situation for them.

And if she had decided to do that, she wouldn't be a semi-celebrity with her own TV show, so no one would care. I don't think that most women who reduce their multiple pregnancies advertise that fact...
