LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Nadya Suleman has fired Angels In Waiting, the non-profit organization that was providing free around-the-clock care for her 14 kids.
According to RadarOnline, Suleman is looking to hire her own nannies.
Apparently there has been tension between Nadya and "Angels" head Linda West-Conforti, who was rumored to have been giving information about Suleman to child-welfare investigators.

LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Two more of Nadya Suleman's Octuplets have been
released from the Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Center.
The newborns, Makai and Jeremiah, weigh 5lbs., 5 ounces each and are being bottle fed.
Unlike the chaos that surrounded the homecoming of the first two infants she brought home, Makai and Jeremiah's arrival was low key, thanks to a police road block.
"We didn't want a repeat of the first arrival home. The barrier was just to make sure the media frenzy doesn't happen again. We did that on Saturday also, when two more came home. Tonight we did it again for extra precautions," a spokesperson for the La Habra Police Department said.
The other 4 Octuplets remain hospitalized.
LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - OctoMom Nadya Suleman confirms to Life&Style magazine that she will be doing a TV show with her 14 kids.
But Octo is quick to point out that it's not a "reality" show. "What I'm doing with this TV show is basically creating documentaries about the lives of my children. It's going to be an ongoing thing, and it will follow them from now until they are 18," Octo told L&S.
So far, the show is only scheduled to air in the UK, but we've got a hunch we'll be seeing in the US as well.

"We urge you to reconsider adding two more dependents to your family," Michelle Cho of PETA wrote.
"Like children, pigs and dogs are intelligent, social beings with complex needs. They require a lot of attention, space, and exercise as well as a huge financial commitment."
It's unclear if Suleman received the letter, however on Wednesday she told X17online that she was definitely not going to be adding a pet to her family anytime soon.

Apparently authorities were concerned when Suleman's Autistic 4-year-old son Adian showed up at school with a black eye and bite marks.

The child's teacher notified officials after Suleman failed to respond to a note inquiring about the injuries. Suleman says forgot to respond to the note.

LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Gloria Allred is criticizing Nadya Suleman after the mother of 14 told Us Weekly that she regretted having her octuplets.
Nadya was quoted as saying, "I think it was a mistake - in terms of the well-being of the octuplets and of my other kids. I can't give myself to them 100 percent...if I'd known that, I never would have fathomed having eight more."
Allred was outraged by Suleman's remark saying: "I think it's very, very sad when any mother calls her child, or in this case, eight little babies, a mistake. How are the babies going to feel when they grow up and read one day, as they will, or view on the internet, as they will, the fact that their mother calls them a mistake?"
"That is just very, very sad to me as a person who is an advocate for children, Allred continued.
"Even if she thinks it, the fact that she sad it is very, very troubling because has she considered the impact that would have on the children long-term? That's a question to which I don't have the answer, but I think that many people will agree with me that it's rather disturbing that she would say that."

LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Nadya Suleman expressed regret and fear at raising 14 children as a single parent in a two-hour documentary that was broadcast Wednesday on Fox.
"I screwed up my life, and I screwed up my kids' lives," Suleman laments. "What the heck am I going to do... I have to put on a strong facade."
Suleman also managed to get a dig in at fellow multi-birth mom and reality TV star Kate Gosselin.
Speaking about Kate, Nadya says, "Honestly, I'm not as attention seeking, probably never, it's just my opinion, but some people are desperate for attention." However, she does admit to making some major parenting mistakes, and while her own mother chastises her and says she can't "frivolously keep procreating."
On a more intimate level, Nadya reveals that she hasn't had sex in ten years, and she adds, "As time kept going on and on, and the more kids I have, the less I remembered what [sex] was like."

LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Nadya Suleman's octuplets are celebrating their first birthday today.
Over the past year, Nadya's life has changed dramatically, from being a single mother of six who lived in a house her mother paid for to a single mother of fourteen living in a house that the tabloids paid for!
She's appeared on the cover of national magazines (baring her bikini bod on one), been investigated by the department of child and family services, confessed to a crush on Jon Gosselin, and sold a tv series about the life of the Octobabies (which has still yet to materialize).
The babies, who have three nannies in addition to their mom to care for them, apparently have started walking and crawling, which means Nadya will have to chase after 16 little legs (thank goodness she got in shape!)
"They're starting to be a lot of work," Nadya's attorney Jeff Czech tells the Today Show. "It's going to be hard for her, and she's aware of that."
Wow so much going on in only a year. What do you think we can expect from the Suleman family next year?
