I'm no expert when it comes to babies, but I'm pretty sure if a newborn weighs more than my miniature dachshund, that's a big-ass baby.
Joy Buckley and the hospital crew who helped deliver her third child are in agreement. The upstate New York mother birthed a 15-pound girl named Harper last week, and doctors think that may be the biggest newborn in the facility's history. The infant, at one-week-old, is roughly the size of a 6-month-old human. Mama Buckley was quoted as saying,
“It was pretty violent. She got stuck under my ribcage."
It took multiple doctors, a medical “vacuum” and a C-section to deliver the 23.2-inch bundle of ... joy?
Congrats to the Buckley family!
