Woman gives birth to a gigantic 2ft tall baby weighing 16.1lbs


A Brazilian woman gives birth to a 2 ft tall baby that weighs more than 16lb.



A woman in Brazil has given birth to a 2ft tall baby weighing more than 16lb.


According to The Mirror, the baby, named Angerson Santos, was born in hospital Padre Colombo, Parintins, on January 18th.


According to the hospital, the infant was born via Caesarean section and is now in stable condition with no defects.



According to the Brazilian daily El Globo, Angerson is the heaviest infant ever born in the Brazilian state of Amazonas, breaking the previous record of 6.74 kg.



Pedro Aluizio was born in 2014 in Parintins and weighed in at 14lb 8oz and measured 57 centimetres.


The newborn is more than twice the average size of a baby, and the clothes she and her partner bought for him don't fit, so the hospital has started a fundraiser to cover all their costs.


The hospital is also looking for community donations, such as extra-large nappies and clothing for babies aged 9 to 12 months.


Cleidiane thanked the hospital personnel for their continued care and support after giving birth to her son, adding, "I want to thank the team at Padre colombo Hospital."  They have given me strength and treated me very well since I arrived here. I don’t know what would have happened to me if it wasn’t for them. I really appreciate each one of them,” she said.


In the United States, the average full-term baby is born weighing 6 to 9 lbs.


A study that was published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology states that a higher birth weight "may complicate [the] birth of the baby" and can have detrimental effects on the infant's health.


Despite his unusual birth weight, Anderson is not the world’s heaviest baby. According to the Guinness World Records, the world's biggest baby was a boy born in 1955 to a healthy mother in the Italian town of Aversa. The baby weighed in at 22lbs, 8oz.

It should come as no surprise that Kanye West and 'implants that are like nothing that has been done before' are mentioned together. He's a man who doesn't take things lightly, and his most recent financial decision was reportedly to spend $850,000 on palladium and platinum teeth. And the oddest part of all? His teeth are all still intact. Credit: Instagram @Kanyewest The implants are termed as 'fixed-prosthodontics', and he designed them with the help of medical and dental professionals. A person familiar with the matter said : "They are, as the name suggests, fixed and permanent, but this goes way beyond veneers or grills."And his implant is unlike anything done before." He collaborated with the so-called 'Father of Diamond Dentistry', Dr. Thomas Connelly, who made and fitted the dentures. The rapper s...

The 'luckiest man in the world' who survived death and won the lottery twice

Image
Featured Image Credit: 9News Your chances of winning the lottery are tiny, roughly one in 45 million, so it is doubtful that any of us would win a large fortune in our lifetime. However, trucker Bill Morgan won the lotto twice. Bill's heart stopped for 14 minutes in June 1998, but he was miraculously revived by physicians. He wasn't out of the woods just yet, as he ended up in a coma for over two weeks. After being engaged in a terrifying vehicle incident, Australian Bill was proclaimed 'clinically dead' by health specialists, yet he outperformed expectations. Bill was out and about one day when he decided to purchase himself a scratch card and was happy to learn he'd won a brand new car - a Toyota Corolla worth $30,000. When word spread of his dramatic reversal of fortunes, a Melbourne television station called Bill to tell his story. While filming the feature, the 9News Australia TV crew requested him to duplicate his victory with a new scratch card, which he duti...

Dog says ‘hello’ in ‘English accent’, leaving people people baffled

Dog says ‘hello’ in ‘English accent’, leaving people people baffled Featured image credit: Jam Press/Tik Tok @fuggersandcompany Dogs have long been known for their cleverness, but a chihuahua has apparently reached a new level of intelligence, as it can speak' with a British accent.  Of course, most dogs are trained to bark when their owners tell them to ‘speak’, but this isn’t your typical woof. It’s a sophisticated, well-chosen delivery of the word ‘hello’, as if it’s coming out of the mouth of a well-dressed university professor. But the amazing thing is that the word doesn’t come from a professor, but rather from a dog named ‘Fuggers’. You heard me, didn’t you? In the video below, Fuggers shares her greeting with her owner, Shana Gilbert, who lives in Bedford, UK. The video begins with Fuggers fidgeting, as if she’s trying to get Shana’s attention. She wags her tail and shuffles along the floor, but then stops dead in her tracks as she decides that words will have more impact....
