Holy cr@p!! 10lb is enough to make my eyes water, but 20lb+?????!!! In the 1800's??! How did they do it?

Seriously. How? $:\$ ?

My heaviest was 6lb 2oz, (others were 5lb 13oz and 5lb 11oz) And that was plenty big enough for my bits to cope with!

My friend has just had a baby that was 11lb 12.5 oz! I could not believe it! She had a c section as apparently her cervix just would not open! I am not surprised!! She is tiny too so she would have actually split in half! Apparently she had a very active placenta which is why he grew so big and for her next one they would take her in early to be induced as she actually went a week over her due date. She said he was the talk of the hospital though! I'm going to forward that article to her!
