Maria Mytryk's Experience
This delivery marks the tenth time Maria Mytryk has given birth. Her family now consists of five daughters and five sons, all of whom were born naturally without medical intervention. Tetyana Bondarchuk, head of the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department, confirmed the birth proceeded without complications and that all of Maria's children have been healthy and carried to full term, typically delivered between 39 and 40 weeks.

In recent years, Ukraine has seen a modest increase in birth rates among families with multiple children, reflecting shifting societal attitudes.
This news underscores the enduring importance of family values and traditions in contemporary Ukrainian society, where the birth of a child remains a profoundly significant event.
