Russian woman gives birth to 17lb child

[Honey]

A Siberian woman who gave birth to her 12th child - doing more than her fair share to stem Russia's population decline - was stunned to find that little Nadia weighed in at a massive 17.1 lb (7.75kg).


Nadia was delivered by caesarean section in the local maternity hospital in the Altai region on September 17, joining eight sisters and three brothers, a local reporter said. Scroll down for more ...



"We were all simply in shock," said Nadia's mother, Tatyana Barabanova, 43. "What did the father say? He couldn't say a thing - he just stood there blinking."
"I ate everything, we don't have the money for special foods so I just ate potatoes, noodles and tomatoes," she told the reporter, adding that all her previous babies had weighed more than 5 kg. Scroll down for more ...



The Guinness World Records lists a 10.2 kg baby boy born in Italy in 1955, and a 10.8 kg baby boy who was born in the United States in 1879 but died 11 hours later. The average weight for most healthy newborn babies is around 7.06 lb, according to World Health Organisation figures.

Oh Thank God! LOL. I just kinda skimmed over it and just assumed she pushed that sucker out! Whew.

Dayum! My junk hurts after reading that.

I wonder if the mom had gestational diabetes. That shit makes you give birth to toddlers if it's left untreated. But could you imagine THAT baby doing bladder kicks, it would be all like :step, pee, step, pee.

A Siberian woman has given birth to a whopping baby girl who rocked the scales at 17.1lbs.

Baby Nadia weighs 17.1lbs

Nadia, 43-year-old Tatyana Barabanova's twelfth child, was delivered by Caesarean section in the local maternity hospital in Russia's Altai region on September 17.
She joins eight sisters and three brothers, all of whom weighed in at more than 11lbs.
"We were all simply in shock," said Nadia's mother. "What did the father say? He couldn't say a thing - he just stood there blinking."
"I ate everything, we don't have the money for special foods so I just ate potatoes, noodles and tomatoes," she added.

New-born Nadia is even bigger than Mexican baby Super Tonio who caused a sensation in February when he came into the world weighing a massive 14.5lbs.
Antonio Vasconcelos was also born by Caesarian and measured an enormous 22 inches in length.
Another Antonio, born in Salvador, Brazil, in January 2005, weighed an enormous 16lbs 11ozs when proud mother Teresa Alejandra Cruz, 23, gave birth.
Seven years earlier, his younger sister arrived weighing 11.46lbs.
According to Guinness World Records, the heaviest baby born to a healthy mother was a boy weighing 22lbs 8ozs, in Aversa, Italy, in September 1955.
The average weight for most healthy newborn babies is around 7.06lbs, according to World Health Organisation figures.
