Russian woman's 12th baby weighs in at 7.75kg
A Siberian woman who gave birth to her 12th child – doing more than her fair share to stem Russia's population decline – was stunned to find that little Nadia weighed in at a massive 7.75kg.
Nadia was delivered by caesarean section in the local maternity hospital in the Altai region on September 17, joining eight sisters and three brothers, a local reporter said.
"We were all simply in shock," said Nadia's mother, Tatyana Barabanova, 43. "What did the father say? He couldn't say a thing – he just stood there blinking."
"I ate everything, we don't have the money for special foods so I just ate potatoes, noodles and tomatoes," she told the reporter, adding that all her previous babies had weighed more than 5 kg.
The Guinness World Records lists a 10.2kg baby boy born in Italy in 1955, and a 10.8kg baby boy who was born in the United States in 1879 but died 11 hours later.
The average weight for most healthy newborn babies is around 3.2kg, according to World Health Organisation figures.
There's a photo on stuff if anyone wants to check out the mega-baby

Oh I had to laugh when I saw the pic with Nadia lying next to the other baby! She's huge!!! And the rolls on her - wow! But looks very cute!
Oh and I thought I'd give the link to this photo as I typed in stuff.com & it looked to be a porn website

That's really chubby! What with the belly buttons?  I thought it was a silly photo, the other baby looks prem/malnourished (ribs, head size) and it didn't give it's weight.

The wrist thing looks like taping for IV's, the belly buttons i have no idea.. maybe they don't clamp them over there.. or maybe it's something to dry them up?
