Twelve kids? Guess how much the last one weighed!

AMAZING!!!! I thought my DS was big born 1 wk early at 9 lbs-sheesh!! My DH saw the pic and said the baby next to the massive 17 pounder was probably thinking "OH MY GOD!!!! Help me I'm about to be eaten!!!"

My DS will be 4 months this weekend. His 4 month check up Mon-think he will probably be 17 lbs.

Wonder if that mother had gestational diabetes at all? Or how many weeks early/late she delivered.

Oh, my goodness! Reminds me of after my 2nd was born, when I went to change #1's diaper (he was 14 mos old and just over 17 pounds himself), and I thought to myself what a giant baby. No, SHE is a giant baby! I hope she is healthy and has a wonderful, blessed life! I'm glad she and her momma are ok (and I'd probably opt for a C-section if I was having a baby that big, myself!)

That 17 lb child's head looks full grown. Nadia will probably grow up to be a 5'11" 110 lb runway model, LOL!

Oh my, at least it wasn't a vaginal birth...that would make my hooha hurt just thinking about it! LOL

I would be in shock too!

OMGosh. All I can do is compare Ethan's 5lb 2oz and think... How the heck did she carry the baby? Wow!!

I think it's funny how that other little baby is looking at the 17 pound baby like "Wow Your a Giant!" That is a really cute picture.

17 lbs at birth? so, they must be using 0-3 or 3-6 size clothes?

more like 9-12 month clothes!
