Home » Indiana Mom Welcomes 16lb Baby Boy!
Whitney Hallett knew she grew big babies, but got the surprise of her life when she gave birth to her 4th child on May 1!
During her pregnancy Whitney, 28, was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, a condition where 'extra glucose in your bloodstream crosses the placenta, which triggers your baby's pancreas to make extra insulin.' Previously, her older children weighed 8 pounds, 8 ounces, and 11 pounds, 1 ounce, and 9 pounds, 14 ounces, respectively.
Little did she know, baby Waylon would almost double his oldest sister's weight.
After Waylon made his debut, Edmond need to run out to buy bigger clothes for his son. "There was no way he was fitting into a newborn outfit!" Edmond told the Magazine.
Waylon's size, however, caused some problems with development and he needed to spend seven weeks in the NICU for breathing and feeding issues.
There have been quite a few scale tipping babies in the news lately. Last week a South Carolina couple revealed they welcomed a 14 pound, 4 ounce, boy on Friday, June 23.
