Wow! No wonder she was exhausted.

I thought my girls were big kids! Sydney was 8lbs 9 oz and Bridget was 9 lbs 13 oz.

Thank goodness she had a C-section! Otherwise...OUCH.

**Neeley** · 09-16-2006, 10:07 PM

No kidding, I have seen the birth certificate, my hubby was 14 lbs 1 oz when he was born. His sister was close to 11 lbs. Thank goodness they were both c-sections.

Man!! What a huge child! I saw a 9 month old yesterday that was the size of a 1 year old. He was so long, and wasn't really very fat at all.

Thank goodness for C sections. I could feel the pain.......poor girl.

**autumnlynn** · 09-16-2006, 10:49 PM

Wow, that was one big baby, but really cute!!

**Katybird** · 09-17-2006, 10:44 AM

My goodness, that was a big boy. I bet that poor Mom feels like she gave to a toddler. He is a cutie though.

Boy oh boy...that's a big baby. He's a cutie.

**AmyMCGS** · 09-17-2006, 11:21 AM

WOW! My kids were both preemies.... 4lbs 12oz, and 3lbs 10oz. There was a 10lb baby in the Special Care nursery next to my daughter once, and we couldn't belive how huge that baby looked compared to her. I can't imagine a bigger one!

~Wow! Did you see the part about the 8.5lb twins she also carried?17lbs of babies in there. OUCH!!! My son weighed in at 8lb 8oz and my daughter at 7lb 15.5oz. My body knows how to grow a good baby! But then genetics take over and they become skinny toddlers! I think I have the scrawniest children in the world. The 'moose' in the story may grow up very slim because birth weight can be very misleading, JMO.

mine were all in the six pound range. 6.4 6.9, and 6.12. so i have no idea what so large must be like. He's a doll though.

And she seems so happy.

**PennyPinchinPam** · 09-21-2006, 02:09 PM

Ouch! I bet she has already returned all those newborn size clothes.

**lottaLove** · 09-21-2006, 02:33 PM

I can't even imagine how a baby could get that big in only 9 months. She must have been just as big as 6 months as most women are when they are full term. Hopefully it isn't some sort of genetic problem like gigantism or something like that. Cute baby though!
