The single mum has now been left to cater for the 38 children all alone - 6 of them are dead.
A kind-hearted Arabian man provided the bunk beds that her kids sleep on but Mama Uganda has been able to enrol all her children in school.
She delivered a single child only once
Beaming with a smile from ear to ear, the strong woman revealed that doctors told her she is very fertile and that has contributed to her large childbearing.
Interestingly, she only delivered a single child once, all others have been twins, triplets and quadruplets.
Mama Uganda birthed 22 boys and 16 girls who are still alive. Her total 44 deliveries have been twins 4 times, triplets 5 times and quadruplets 5 times in addition to the single delivery.
It is reported that no family planning method worked for her.
Explorer Hattab visited the woman's residence and shared a video of its interior.

Social media reacts
Ify Mado remarked:
"She is really a heroine. She should make Guinness Book of Records. Besides the Ugandan President should take over the entire family welfare. It must go down in History because it's only God who can do that. At least if you are talking about the history of Ugandan she will definitely be mentioned. This is rare in the world. Congratulations. May God continue to provide for your family."
Natasha Ibrahim wrote:
"Allah bless her and her children. I can barely make it alive with my single pregnancy. Love it that she always have a party waiting for her at home. Such a blessing."
Mary-Anne Delaney thought:
"She is so beautiful. Her children are happy. Still, they need to be able to receive financial help. The laws need to change about early marriage. God bless their family."
Jayanthi Seetha opined:
"I dnt feel any greatness.. can they gv quality life fr their kids? If nt we dnt hv any right to spoil der childhood or future its nt just over by gvng birth...I seriously pity der kids."
Woman who gave birth to 17 kids says she wants more children
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that a woman who gave birth to 17 children had stated that she wants to have more children.
In a BBC News Pidgin interview, the 47-year-old woman said giving birth to children has always come with relative ease for her, adding that only one came through an operation.
Out of all the births she has had, Jummai was only at the hospital on two different occasions to deliver. The rest were delivered at home.
The woman disclosed that seven of the kids died, leaving 5 girls and 5 boys. The mother who got married at the age of 14 stated that people are always in utter disbelief whenever she tells them how many children she has.
