Proof that there is justice in the universe: the baby was born by Caesarean section.
According to the AFP story, the baby’s super-size is likely due to the fact that his 41-year-old mother has diabetes. The baby may have received way, way too much glucose while in his mother’s womb.
The child doesn’t have a name yet, but his parents may want to consider naming him after Audrey 2 from “Little Shop of Horrors.”
Apparently he is really, really, really into being fed.
“He’s got strong appetite, every minute, it’s almost non-stop feeding,” said Binsar Sitanggang, a doctor who helped deliver the child.
Audrey 3 is the largest baby ever born in Indonesia, but he is not the heaviest child ever born.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the world’s heaviest baby was born to Anna Bates, a Canadian woman who lived in Seville, Ohio. That baby was born in 1879 and weighed 23.12 pounds. It died 11 hours after his birth.
