Guinea Pigs can have from 1-8 babies, the average is usually 3. It can be dangerous for the mom if they only have one baby because it will be very big and difficult to give birth to. Having four or more babies is dangerous for the babies because they are small and weak and the moms only have two teats to feed with!
It is a good idea to breed guinea pigs in heards of females because the mom's will feed each other's babies and that way there is usually enough milk to go around.
