This baby is Big !

A healthy huge size baby, Antonio Vasconcelos, was born on early Monday, Jan. 29, 2007 by Caesarian section in Cancun, Mexico. He weights 6.4kg (14 lbs) and 55cm (22 inches) in length at birth. His weight doubled the weight of average newborn babies. He is now the new sensation in this resort town of Cancun, where residents have been crowding the ward to have a glimpse of him. Antonio's mother, Teresa Alejandra Cruz, 23, had also previously gave birth to a 11.46kg girl seven years ago ( at the age of 16 ?). However, Antonio is not the biggest baby in the world. According to Guinness World Records, the heaviest baby was a boy born in Aversa, Italy, in September 1955 weighing 22 pound 8 ounces.

What special diets did the mother observed to deliver such huge size baby ? Too much chili, tortilla chips, pepper, tabasco, and taco ? I am amazed how did the mother manage to carry such heavy weight for 9 months without breaking her back and bones. Well, miracles do happen in the land of speedy Gonzales.... Ariiiiivaaaaa.... Ariiivooooo..... and OOoopppp, here come Super Tonio !

Congratulation for the BIG size baby... May you have another bigger baby soon to break the Guinness World Records.
