And in one of her recent Instagram posts, she revealed she’s been pregnant pretty much every year from 2007 up until 2025.
The only years she wasn’t expecting were 2020 and 2021.
“Years I’ve been pregnant… basically all of them,” she wrote alongside the Reel.
“This reel is always a popular one, so I had to update it to add 2025 after having our sweet baby girl a few months ago!”

Karla wore a pair of black flares and a zip up hoodie in the Instagram video, with people admitting they were as wowed by her incredible figure as her pregnancy revelation.
“How do you stay so thin? You look amazing!!” one wrote.
“Right? I thought the same thing,” another added.
“Though looking after 10 kids might be part of it. Lol.”
“The amount of stress, movement you have to do for each kid, she has to be active 24/7 all year around,” a third insisted.
“She looks better than most without kids!” someone else pointed out.
“And you still look so good! Do you exercise outside of housework carrying two children around?” another asked.
Others were less than impressed with Karla’s admission about her pregnancies, as one wrote: “Sounds extremely stressful, demanding.
“And sad!”
“Poor kids… they only have 1 mother, and the day only have 24 hours,” another added.
“I think this is sickening and very irresponsible!”
“Hey – as someone from a big family, don’t do this! Control your fetish,” a third sighed.
