A newborn who tipped the scales at more than 16 lb (7.3kg) has broken the local hospital’s weight records in Longview, Texas. The baby boy, named JaMichael, delivered by Caesarean section to parents Janet Johnson and Michael Brown on July 8, exceeded doctors’ weight predictions by some 4lb (1.8kg). “We’re just amazed,” Johnson told the Longview News-Journal. “I can’t believe he’s that big. A lot of the baby clothes we bought for him will have to be returned. They’re already too small for him to wear.” According to local news reports, Johnson suffered from gestational diabetes during her pregnancy, which contributed to her baby’s large size.
