Oh baby, this is probably among the biggest of them all.
In Germany, a woman has given birth to the country's largest baby--and it was supposedly via a normal delivery.
The baby named Jasleen, weighs more than six kilograms, and was delivered at the University Hospital in Leipzig, Yahoo! 7 NewsAustralia quoted German site Die Welt as saying.
"At 6.1kg and 57 cm, Jasleen is the biggest-ever German newborn and, even though she remains in the neonatal care unit, mother and baby are doing well," added the report. The baby's mother reportedly had gestational diabetes.
Despite the baby's huge size, Jasleen apparently still isn't the world's biggest. This, as Guinness Book of Records states that a certain Anna Bates gave birth to a boy who weighed 10.8kg in Ohio in 1879. That baby however died hours after birth.
In 2009, a baby with a whopping weight of 19.2 lbs was reportedly born, via Caesarian section, in North Sumatra, Indonesia.
