The amazing 'good news' of the Malian nonuplets

A Malian woman has given birth to nine babies. This is two more than doctors had detected inside her crowded womb - and so she has joined a small group who are the mothers of nonuplets. The pregnancy of Halima Cisse has enthralled Mali and attracted the attention of its leaders; and all this on the International Day of the Midwife! Mary Brosnan is the director of nursing and midwifery at the National Maternity Hospital, and she joined Kieran to talk about how amazing a good news story this is.
