19 pound baby

An Indonesian woman gave birth to this 19.2 pound bundle of joy, setting a record for the country's heaviest newborn ever.

The huge baby is completely healthy and is eating non-stop.

"He's got strong appetite, every minute, it's almost non-stop feeding," the doctor said. "This baby boy is extraordinary, the way he's crying is not like a usual baby. It's really loud."

According to doctors, the baby's huge size was likely caused by his mother having diabetes.

Ouch!  That's nearly three times what either of my children weighed at birth.  My uterus hurts just thinking about it!

I wonder what his mom had to eat to grow when she was pregnant.. I hope he'll grow up healthy...

Crazy! I am no <a href="http://scrubsmag.com/?utm_source=BC2">nurse</a>, but is it possible to have a baby that big!? They had to have gotten it out by c-section otherwise this poor woman would have been broke.
