Did you know that a baby was born weighing 19.2 pounds?
A woman in Indonesia has given birth to the country's biggest ever baby — tipping the scales at a whopping 19.2 pounds.
The 24.4-inch baby boy, who has not yet been given a name, was born by Caesarean
A
"This heavy baby made the surgery really tough, especially the process of taking him out of his (mother's) womb. His legs were so big," Binsar Sitanggang said.
The boy's huge size was most likely the result of his 41-year-old mother having diabetes, Sitanggang said.
When a diabetic mother's glucose level is high during pregnancy, the baby can receive too much glucose and grow too large, gynecologists say.
The boy's mother had to be rushed to hospital because of complications with the pregnancy, which had reached nine months.
The baby is the woman's fourth child, but her only child not delivered by a midwife.
The boy is said to be healthy despite having to initially be given oxygen to overcome breathing
Sitanggang described the baby as "extraordinary" in almost every way.
"He's got strong appetite, every minute, it's almost nonstop feeding," he said. "This baby boy is extraordinary, the way he's crying is not like a usual baby. It's really loud."
