Mariam Nabatanzi gave birth to twins a year after she was married off at the age of 12. Five more sets of twins followed—along with four sets of triplets and five sets of quadruplets.
Three years ago, however, the 39-year-old Ugandan was abandoned by her husband, leaving her to support their surviving 38 children alone.
