I think the highest weight for a baby is 22 lbs
at birth. I had just heard about this on the news
a few days ago because they had a baby born
at 15 lbs and thought it might go in the record book.
Everyone was wrong.
Keep your front page, it has a picture, and they
they are the newspapers of the past that have value.

I had a friend born in 1961 who weighed that much. Does your mom have diabetes? That can cause you to have an overweight baby. Not as uncommon as you might think, especially back in those days.

About 1/2 percent. Not enough for Ripley's, but plenty for your Mom.
