Is 14 enough for the Octomom?

Maybe, maybe not.

Check out shots from Nadya's family album

In a new interview for Good Morning America, Nadya Suleman doesn't dismiss the possibility of having more children.

"If I wanted to do it the traditional way and get married, that's like another chapter," Suleman, 34, tells GMA's Kate Snow of getting pregnant again -- but the prospect of more mouths to feed at the moment makes her laugh.

From Kate to Nadya: see photos of controversial star moms

The mother, interviewed in her home in La Habra, Calif. as she gets her kids ready for bed, says that she typically sleeps two to three hours a night.

A day in the life of Octomom: see the slideshow

She shares some staggering numbers: $1000 in food and 700 diapers per week, 4.5 gallons of milk and eight loads of laundry per day, and a team of five nannies costing $10,000 per month.

Which is why, Suleman says, she agreed to allow a film documentary crew to follow her around for a series of specials (not a reality TV show), including one that's already aired in the United Kingdom. Her payment: approximately $250,000 in the first year.

What are Octomom and other celebs thankful for this holiday season?

"I'm dammed if I do and dammed if I don't," she tells potential critics. "Because if I don't do what I need to do in the media to take care of and support the kids, I can't take care of them."

    she sounds like some of these people who horde animals only she hordes human babies. being pregnant is like an addiction to her. she isn't right in the head. and yes I agree arnold should be a proud daddy after all the children are being taken care by the state of california.

    "Pamela J" there is a BIG difference in the couple from Iowa and yourself and this "octomom", when a woman who has student loans, on welfare, NOT working, USES money and aid given to provide for her and present kids, USES this money to be impregnated to have MORE babies!! BIG DIFFERENCE, SHE already have kids SHE could not feed, WHY DELIBRATELY PAY--- TO BRING M

    pamela j, i commend you for bringing up 8 children and having them do well. the reason why people are so irked by octo-mom is because she didn't have those kids because of some maternal instinct. she did to to become famous. you and the iowa couple are most likely well off and not living off the government. you guys did things the right way.

    this woman is clearly unstable to raise 6 kids let alone 14, the poor grandmother is probably doing 95% percent of the work that she is supposedly be doing her self.

    The media is too harsh on her. The septuplets mom and dad in Iowa where given a brand new home when they had their children. Their church helps support them and gives attention to their children. Nobody picked on them for that. Nobody offered that to me with 8 kids coming one at a time. Nadia hasn't even been offered a house from what it sounds like. Leave her alone-

    You are much too harsh on her - she's doing things her own way. How would you know how you'd do it. I have 8 kids of my own - all came one at a time - I do work, but when they were little they needed all my attention. Now they are all in school and I am in college and working and I have a husband, their dad who is there as well. If he wasn't I don't know how I w

    thats right Nadya,...you cant take care of them.It takes a crew of 5 plus yourself to keep the children's needs covered...oh and you dont have a JOB or...Money. Those children you have in "your" home belong to the taxpayers of California,Arnold must be a proud dad.
