Spokesman for the local health department Firas Al Izzawi said in a statement that the unnamed 25-year-old mum had a natural birth and was perfectly healthy after the procedure.
The seven newborns, six girls and one boy, are said to be in good health after receiving medical check-ups and images show four of the tiny babies lying in a bed together.
Other images show two of the tots lying together shortly after the remarkable birth which local media report is the first case of septuplets being born in Iraq.
Last year a mother at the Saint George University Hospital in Lebanon gave birth to sextuplets, three girls and three boys, all of whom survived the birth.
The children's father Youssef Fadl said that he and his wife had not been considering having more children and they now have 10 youngsters to look after.
The McCaughey septuplets were born to Kenny and Bobbi McCaughey in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1997 and were the world's first set of surviving septuplets.
