Baby biggest ever born at Conn. hospital

[Mrs Behavin]

NORWICH, Conn. - Oh baby! Marie Michel's fifth child was one for the record books. Michel gave birth to a 14-pound, 13-ounce boy Tuesday at William W. Backus Hospital.
Backus officials said the newborn — Stephon Hendrix Louis-Jean — broke the 18-year record for the biggest baby ever born at the hospital by 1 pound, 13 ounces. He was nearly 23 inches long.
"He's built like a linebacker," said Dr. David Kalla, who delivered the baby by Caesarean section.
After nine months of carrying Stephon, 36-year-old Michel said she was more tired and happy to have given birth than all the attention her baby was receiving.
"I was miserable," Michel said. "I couldn't sleep at night. My 13-year-old son had to help me get in and out bed."
The baby's size came as no surprise to his mom. Michel's oldest son weighed 9 pounds at birth, her 8-year-old twin sons each weighed 8 1/2 pounds and her youngest son, age 3, was nearly 12 pounds.

A girl I work with had her baby and he weighed 12 lbs. She had gestational diabetes when she was pregnant and the docs said thats why the baby was so big. He had blood sugar problems when he was born as well.
She had people that she didnt even know coming up to her room just so they could see the 12 lb baby!

Thats like my son. He weighed 6lbs 3 ounces when he was born. He was a tiny little thing that there were no shoes small enough to fit on his little feet.
But now, 3 yrs later...he is a monster! He is a chunk!

I was born about half a month early. I weighed a normal weight, around 7 or 8 pounds. I was an unplanned c-section because I was trying to kill myself before I was even born. LOL Seriously tho, my umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck and every time my mom had a contraction, my heartrate freaked out. So they stopped her from pushing & delivered me themselves.

 

[White2000GT]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think I was a couple weeks premature myself. I have no idea how much I weighed in at though.
