Russian Baby Is Born Weighing 7.75kg (17.5lbs)
A baby, called Nadia, girl was born in Russia on September 17th weighing 17.5lbs (7.75kg), over two times the average for an infant newborn weight. She was delivered by cesarean section in the Altai region of Siberia. Nadia’s mother, 43, is said to be ‘in shock’ at the size of the baby. Apparently, her eight sisters and three brothers all weighed over 5kg (11lbs) when they were born. When the father was asked for his reaction, he was dumbstruck (speechless).
