Nadia Suleman She thinks about the controversial actions she made days after eight babies welcomed.
On Monday, March 10th, an episode of Lifetime’s Oktomom’s confession49 -year -old Syuleman, looked back at his decision to sit with NBC News journalist Anne Curry For her first sitting interview.
“(The hospital) Let me choose what interviewer, so I chose (for) anchor for news and didn’t know who she was. I have never watched anything she did, ”Suleman said. “So I chose an Curry. She was one of the only women. I thought I would feel comfortable talking to a woman. “
When you sit with Curry, 68, for an interview that would broadcast to Today and DATELINE In 2009, Suleman said she was stressed for various reasons, including the way she looked.
“I felt terrible in myself,” she said. “I gained 150 pounds throughout pregnancy, so at that moment I was still about 100 pounds larger than normal. … I had no idea what he would ask me. I had never interviewed before. “
As overturned into Oktomom’s confessionCurry asked questions that many Americans wanted to answer at the time. At one point, the journalist asked Suleman to respond to people who think he was “irresponsible and selfish” for having so many children. (Before welcoming October, Suleman was already the mother of six children.)
“I was foggy in my head. I was really not clear. I was also torn apart and Vikodin for pain, “Suleman explained to the cameras throughout my life. “Can you imagine being questioned and questioned while you just gave birth, all these hormones? You are very, very depressed. You are in a state of shock. I wasn’t there. “

Suleman continued to claim that she was in the “survival regime” and was not ready to take over her accountability for her actions.
“I felt an attack. I was under attack, ”she said. “When a person is psychologically attacking, they are not within the mind to be transparent or honest. They will protect themselves and I used every mechanism to handle. “
According to Sulman who continued to appear on Today Show again for another curry chat in 2011, the hospital where she gave birth, wanted to create an interview to “set the record straight” for her trip. But for the Orange County resident, California, she just wanted to go home and see her children.
“For me, it’s blur,” she said about the interview. “I just don’t even remember. I just know I was in constant protection. “
