16-Pound Baby Born in Texas!!!

Today Interview on Huffington Post with Parents of 16lb baby

A friend of mine shared this link with me. I could not believe it until I saw it! Now, I understand that some babies are big, but 16 pounds is crazy! My fiancee was 11 pounds so its not a far stretch. Hopefully our baby (due Dec 14) wont be near that big. I don't think my tiny body could handle that. A lot of people would say that obesity in America is the leading cause of large babies, and I can't completely disagree. Even according to Baby Center gaining a lot of weight during pregnancy and obesity in the family can cause large babies. Maybe one day America will finally stop with the over-eating, over-indulging, super-sizing, and encouragement of poor diet. It's more expensive to eat healthy than to not.

  1. eating out doesn't really have much to do with baby size. my mother never ate out while she was alive, and I was a little over 10 lbs

  4. She had a c-section to get the baby out. It could be that humans are just getting bigger as a species...who knows!
