WOW that is crazy!! Thats one big baby. I was 6 lbs 9 oz's.

In the past year I had many friends have babies..and it was so weird...about 4 of them had babies that were around 5lbs...Such tiny babies!

Then the smallest girl of all who popped out a kid was like you..she was in labor for 36 hours and then had to do a C-Secton and her baby was almost 9 pounds!
