The highest number of multiples to have all survived in one birth is eight.

'Octomom' has been on the news for giving birth to 8 babies due to fertility drugs.

There has also been a few occurrences of septuplets

The first time this happened was in 1997, born 9 weeks premature, to Kenny and Bobbi McCaughey. The seven children are commonly known as the McCaughey Septuplets. The septuplets were conceived as a result of fertility drugs. At birth, all of these children weighed less than 3 pounds, except for Kenny Jr. (4 M, 3 F) The Humair septuplets were the second occurrence in which all seven septuplets survived. They were born at 32 weeks in 1998. They were born to Hasna Mohammed Humair and her husband, Abdullah Mohammed Humair in Saudi Arabia. ( The third occurrence of septuplets was in 2001 in Washington, D.C. Ghazala Khamis, a 27 year old Egyptian, gave birth to septuplets in August of 2008. Khamis had used fertility drugs. (4 M, 3 F)

The largest number of multiples EVER was quindecaplets, as a result of drugs. This is extremely rare, and the Italian woman was forced to abort them.
