Nearly-6kg Whopper Could Be Western Australia's Heaviest Baby Born (13.22)

A whopping baby boy, weighing nearly six kilograms, born on Saturday, is fast-becoming an online sensation, and could be Western Australia's heaviest baby.
Australian woman Breanna Sykes gave birth to not-so-little Ziad Kadic just after 7.15pm on Saturday.
He weighed in at 5.9kg and measured 57cm, which is longer than a loaf of bread.
Ms Sykes had to be put under anaesthetic after her waters broke.
She was fully dilated, but the pain was too much, News Corp has reported.
In the end, baby Ziad was born by caesarean section.
While nothing has been confirmed, Ziad could be the biggest baby born in WA.
Ziad unfortunately didn't manage to come close to Queesland's heaviest baby born, Central Queensland boy Ollie Stock, who was born nearly three years ago at 6.76kg.

That is a big baby - I was 9.6 lbs and my mother was barely five feet tall, 105 lbs. We both almost didn’t make it in 1952.

She needs to tough it out more. :)
Our last one was 12 lb, 7 oz. All natural, no drugs.
My wife toughed it out.
Of course, she has absolutely zero sympathy when I get sick. I hurt my back a few years ago and was laying on the e floor, unable to get up due to the spasm.
She nudged me with her foot like I was a dead fish on the beach and said “Did you pump out a 12 and a half pound kid? Nah, didn’t think so.”

A man's more highly developed brain has more pain receptors; it's a combat survival trait. That's my response when this comes up :)

YOu don’t need to assume that. Why would you assume that?
