19 pound baby


Akbar Risuddin, center, a four-day-old baby boy, weighing 8.7-kilograms (19.2-pounds), lays in the middle of two standard size newborn babies at a hospital in Kisaran, North Sumatra, Indonesia, Friday, Sept. 25, 2009. Indonesia's heaviest-ever newborn drew curious crowds Friday to the Indonesian hospital where the boy named Akbar — or the Great in Arabic — came into the world at a record 19.2 pounds (8.7 kilograms). Akbar Risuddin was born to a diabetic mother in a 40-minute cesarean delivery that was complicated because of his unusual weight and size, Dr. Binsar Sitanggang said.

5. My SO was over 13 pounds at birth. Diabetic mother, Natural birth took 3 days.
She is under 5 foot tall, he is now 6 ft one. Lots of scars on his head though. Forceps scars. It was a close call.

I'm blessed to have them both, (most days.)
