A mother in Jakarta, Indonesia gave birth to 19.2 pound, 2 foot long baby boy. This baby is big enough to break your knee! The big baby was likely caused by his mother having gestational diabetes. This is a weight record for a newborn in Indonesia, although a bit short of the world record of 23 pounds set in 1879. And luckily enough, the baby was delivered through cesarean section, which is probably a relief for the mother because naturally delivering that baby would have been pretty painful!Here is a link to a video from the Today show.
I heard this on the news yesterday.
