An Indonesian woman named Ani gave birth to a 19.2 pound (8.7 Kg) and 24.4 inches (62 cm) baby boy via Caesarian section yesterday in Medan, North Sumatra. The baby boy named Muhammad Akbar Risuddin, is among the heaviest babies ever delivered survived.

Indonesia’s previous heaviest baby, weighing in at 6.9 kilos, was born in 2007 on the outskirts of the capital Jakarta, according to the Indonesian Museum of Records website.

Britain’s heaviest newborn was delivered in Cumbria in 1992 weighing 15lb 8oz.

More recently Francisca do Santos gave birth to a son weighing 16lb 11oz by Caesarean section in Brazil.

The big baby might be a result of his 41 year-old mother’s diabetes. When a diabetic mother’s glucose level is high during pregnancy, the baby can receive too much glucose and grow too large, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.
