Meanwhile, the proud father of the baby says to US Weekly:

Moreover, after the birth of the baby, Edmond ran out to buy Size 6 to 9-month clothes for his son. Followingly, he said:
“There was no way he was fitting into a newborn outfit!”
Issues in the child
Though he weighs like a month-old baby he has some issues at the beginning. The newborn spent seven weeks in the NICU for breathing and feeding issues. And now he is home with his parents and two sisters.
Edmonds stated:
“He weighs 17 pounds, 7 ounces. He sleeps a lot more than our other babies did, but he’s healthy. When he’s awake, he’s alert and smiles. He’s a happy boy.”
Followingly, Edmonds also included that Whitney was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Well! This is the condition that can cause a newborn to grow very big in utero.
Previously, she gave birth to babies who weighs 8 pounds, 8 ounces, and 11 pounds, 1 ounce, and 9 pounds, 14 ounces, respectively.
Moreover, talking about the baby, this is only not the news, here’s another big throw. A South Carolina couple embraced a 14-pound, 4 ounces, boy on Friday, June 23.
Followingly, Arthur Keisler described ABC News about his son Colin, who set the record for the largest baby ever born at Lexington Medical Center.
In addition, talking about the baby he said:
“I make ‘em big. The room completely ch anged as soon as they got him out. The doctor said, ‘Whoa, this is a big baby.’ They pulled the scale into the operating room and the room and the room erupted into like, ‘Oh, my God, this is the craziest thing ever.’”
Now! All things aside let’s get into the facts about the baby. According to American Pregnancy, the average newborn weighs seven-and-a-half pounds at birth.
