 omg i was showing my daughter pictures on the computer....and she loves babys and i google baby images and i came across this!!!

a 17lb 1oz infant!!


Subject: FW: 17 Pound 1 Ounce Baby....Ouch

BARNAUL, Russia - 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 17 pounds, 1 ounce.

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."

Commentary:
According to this email forward, the accompanying photographs show newborn Nadia, a baby born in Russia that weighed in at a whopping 17 pound, 1 ounce (7.75 kg). A number of site visitors have contacted me to ask if the photographs are genuine. Some have suggested that the images may have been manipulated to make the baby seem bigger than she really is.

However, the photographs are genuine and the description is accurate. Baby Nadia was born at the maternity hospital in the Altai region of Siberia on 17 September 2007. As the message states, Nadia weighed 17 pound, 1 ounce at birth. Mother Tatyana Barabanova, who has eleven other children, noted that all her babies have weighed over 11 pounds (5 kg) at birth.

 

*SORRY IF THIS WAS ALREADY POSTED*

  • That is what I was thinking.  That is one thing that makes me think that the baby is older than they are claiming.  It may be a big baby, but it was't just born.

    Where is the umbilical cord?

  • I am not denying that the baby weighed 17 lbs. at birth.  I am just questioning the timing of the photo.  That baby is at least a couple of weeks old.

  • Ha! I couldn't even imagine. I'm just like.. Holy crap!

    I wonder if he's going to be like 7 feet tall when he grows up... or It'd be really weird if he was actually a really small guy.
