Baby bumps are nothing new in the Radford household.
对雷德福一家来说,新生婴儿降临早已不是什么新鲜事了。
But even though they are Britain’s biggest family, the sight of two together is a first.
但是虽然他们是英国最大的家庭,两个婴儿几乎同时出生还是第一次。
When Sue Radford, 39, heard her eldest daughter Sophie, 20, was giving her a second grandchild she was thrilled. Just a month later, the excitement was doubled when Mrs Radford discovered she was expecting her 17th baby – so now mother and daughter are sharing the pregnancy process.
女主人苏·雷德福今年39岁,听说自己的20岁的大女儿将给她带来第二个孙儿的消息,她非常激动。就在几个月后,这个家庭迎来喜上加喜:因为雷德福夫人发现自己怀上了第17个孩子!所以现在,妈妈和女儿可以共享怀孕的喜悦了!
The Radfords run a successful bakery. Mrs Radford, who has nine sons and seven daughters, said she was ‘ecstatic’ to find out she was pregnant.
雷德福一家经营的面包店生意很好。雷德福夫人已经有9个儿子和7个女儿,她说自己发现再次怀孕后欣喜若狂。
She said sharing the experience with Sophie helps to stop her worrying about her own pregnancy after she suffered a miscarriage last September. Yesterday, Mrs Radford said: ‘Baby No 17 is due in November and we couldn’t be happier. It has been fantastic being pregnant at the same time as Sophie.
她说,自己去年9月怀孕时流产曾留下心理阴影,但这次和女儿苏菲一起怀孕可以帮助自己减轻焦虑。昨天雷德福夫人说:“第17个孩子是在去年11月份怀上的,我们简直高兴坏了!和女儿苏菲一起怀孕,这感觉简直太妙了!”
Sophie already has a 21-month-old girl called Daisy with her 22-year-old boyfriend Joe and they share a privately rented home.
苏菲和22岁的男友乔生活在一个出租房里,他们已经有了一个21月大的女儿名叫黛西。
She said: ‘It was strange. As soon as I found out I was pregnant I just knew my mum was too. When she told me I was so happy. It just makes everything less stressful and I feel like it has brought us even closer. It is lovely to be able to share this experience with my mum and we are both doing really well.’
她说:“很奇怪哦,我一发现自己怀孕了就知道妈妈也怀上了。当她告诉我确实怀孕了的时候,我特别高兴。有了彼此的陪伴我们都没那么大压力,我觉得这让我们更亲密了。和妈妈一起共享怀孕的体验,这很可爱,并且我们两个状况都很好。”
The family were featured on Channel 4 show, 16 Kids and Counting. And will they stop counting at baby No 17? Mrs Radford said: ‘I always say “never say never” but maybe this time it is the last.'
这家人登上了一期英国4频道节目——《数数16个孩子》。那么第17个孩子之后,他们家的人口数还会继续上涨吗?雷德福夫人说:“我之前一直说的都是‘永不说不’,但这次也许是最后一个了。”
