A 19-year-old lady named Nandini, has given birth to the
world's biggest baby, weighing a staggering 15lbs. The baby girl was
born through Caesarean section at a government-run hospital in India.
She tipped the scales at twice the size of an average baby, which
typically weigh about 7lb 5oz and weighs the same as an average
six-month-old.
Reacting to the birth, Dr Poornima Manu, the gynaecologist
who delivered the baby said: 'She came as a big surprise for all of us.
The surgery took place for nearly half an hour and it was free of any
risk. She is really big and beautiful. She does not have any health
issues like irregular sugar levels or thyroid and is breathing well. We
were initially concerned about her sugar levels but that is normal.'
However, she is being kept at the neonatal intensive care unit and
doctors are monitoring her developments before they discharge her.
