At 9:05Friday morning Janet Johnson and Michael Brown welcomed their son at Longview Good Shepherd Medical Center. But surprising news is that the bay is 16 pound, 1 ounce and 2 foot long. And his name is given JaMichael. His nickname is the Moose. The parents think that they are the proud parents in the world.
It is assumed that Moose is the largest child ever born in the hospital and possibly in the state.
The Brown baby's weight is just about equivalent to that of a six-month-old.
The 39-year-old mother suffered from gestational diabetes, which can result in or indicate bigger birth weights. Exactly how much bigger was the huge surprise.
As large as JaMichael is, there have been heftier newborns. The heaviest baby, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, was born in Ohio in 1879 and weighed 23 pounds, 12 ounces.
More recently, a newborn nicknamed "giant baby" born 2005 in Brazil weighed in at 17 pounds. The baby was delivered by C-section to the 38-year-old mother, who was also diabetic.
The baby and his parents all are well.
