Mariam Nabatanzi Babirye (born c. 1980), also known as Maama Uganda or Mother Uganda, is a Ugandan woman known for birthing 44 children, 38 of whom are still alive. As of March 2025, her eldest children were 33 years old, and the youngest were eight years old. In 2015, her husband abandoned the family, reportedly unable to support so many children. Born around 1980, Babirye first gave birth when she was 13 years old, having been forced into marriage the year before. By the age of 36, she had given birth to a total of 44 children, including three sets of quadruplets, four sets of triplets, and six sets of twins, for a total of fifteen births. The number of multiple births was caused by a rare genetic condition causing hyperovulation as a result of enlarged ovaries. In 2019, when Babirye was aged 40, she underwent a medical procedure to prevent any further pregnancies.
