Mother gives birth to a girl weighing 13lb4oz without a C-section

Germany's heaviest newborn

A baby weighing 13lb 8oz (6.11kg) and measuring 23in (57.5 cm) long has been born in Germany.At nearly a stone, she is twice the weight of the average newborn girl.

Baby Jasleen arrived on July 26 and weighed a massive 13.47 pounds. Babies her size are usually born via a caesarean section, but remarkably she was born naturally. The mother gave birth at University Hospital in Leipzig and discovered she had a previously undiagnosed case of gestational diabetes which can cause abnormally big babies.

Although both mother and daughter are doing well, Jasleen remains in the neonatal care unit. She is now officially the largest new-born in Germany. (UK Daily Mail)
