A mom who welcomed her 16th child two months ago has shockingly revealed that she is now pregnant with her 17th baby.

Nancy and her husband are parents to a large brood that consists of 16 tots and will be joined by another baby - a boy - in the next few weeks. In total, the super mom will now have nine boys and eight girls.

She and her hubby have had to remodel their house to accommodate the ever-growing family, by changing every room, including the office space. The doting couple have also built a fun playhouse with a slide in the garden so that their kids can have their very own space.

Nancy often posts about her huge family on YouTube under her channel Real Mom Real Solutions - which boasts over 44k subscribers - and often gets asked by commenters why she has so many children.

In her latest video titled "Pregnant with 17th Baby," she revealed the simple answer to everyone's questions.

"People always ask me why I would want so many kids or why I have so many kids and, honestly, I have the same question back to them," she said to the camera. "I don't understand why somebody wouldn't want so many kids I have 16 different children almost 17 and every one of them is so different from the other one."

"But they're all so, like, there's so much joy and so, like, they're my life I just can't imagine life without any one of them. I look at my baby and I just think would I want another one of him absolutely yes," Nancy continued to explain.

Some of the youngest of the massive family include four-year-old Porscha, who recently started pre-school, her sister Nancy, two, and the latest addition - one-year-old son Beckett. Nancy revealed what her baby boy is like and said: "He is the cutest, most joyful baby ever. He’s a very curious baby, he loves playing with toys."

In addition to this, the mom spoke about how she buys essentials for her children whenever she goes to the supermarket, stating that fellow shoppers are "always so surprised" when they see her cart.

She recalled some of the hilarious conversations she's had with people, including one in which someone asked her: "What are you stocking up for? The year?" Nancy would reply: "No, just a week."

Large families aren’t as unusual as you may think, as parents who have had over 10 children took to the comments to congratulate Nancy and her husband for the arrival of their 17th child.

"Hi, and congrats!! I’m a mumma of 9 sons and 7 daughters. Big families are so much fun," one user wrote, while another said: "I am 38 years old and am pregnant with my 16th baby. Children are a gift from the Lord."

A third person chimed in: ''You are so blessed to have such a wonderful family! Like you mentioned not everyone will understand why to choose to have so many kids. But babies are definitely a blessing from God, I've been trying to get pregnant for over 7 years, I am 34 now and still praying and hoping to have kids or at least 1 child one day.''

"Back in [the] 1960s, I went to school with a classmate [who] came from a family of 24 children. Her parents had more than one set of twins. That was a first I had ever heard of 24 siblings in one family," a fourth user said, adding, "Have as many children as God gives to you that's between God, your husband, and you and everyone else can stay out of it and mind their own business. Blessings to you and your large family."

Congratulations to Nancy and her husband!
