Jenny and Bryan Masche raise their new sextuplet co-stars

Tonight, we'll see if Jenny and Bryan can do it better or at least more normal.

I didn't find it, but honestly I couldn't get too interested in watching
SIX kids who are two years old. There was nothing too compelling about their story from what I saw online except that Jenny had some kind of heart problem after the birth.

Jenny is a nurse practioner, so what went wrong that she ended up carrying six babies and having a heart attack? Have you seen her kids?

I don't think it was an actual heart attack, just elevated blood pressure. Anyway, the novelty of six kids is the pregnancy and the birth. After that, there really isn't anything more interestintg about them than any other family with six kids. Why do you need to watch a big family on tv when there is one right down the street from you?

I've read actual heart attack and also issues with surgery/anesthesia when she went in to have her tummy tuck and breast augmentation. This was taped for the show, but I haven't seen it. Maybe they just play things up to grab interest.

She's a nurse too. She should be more informed.

This is for real though:

She had increased blood volume due to carrying the six. For whatever reason, her uterus supposedly clamped down instead of losing the excess blood and she went into heart failure. She said that she basically she doesn't complain now because of being so grateful just to be around to raise their six kids.

She reportedly was in the hospital for 3 months after the babies were born.
