Manaus – This baby is a real pounder!
The pregnant Cleidiane Santos (27) was in the 40th week of pregnancy and actually only for a routine examination in a clinic in Parintins in the Brazilian state of Amazonas.
At the hospital, it was determined that her baby was too big for a normal birth. The child was taken by caesarean section last Wednesday.
At 7.328 kilograms and 59 centimeters long, Angerson is the tallest baby ever born in Brazil – and healthy.
► His doctors attribute the high weight to diabetes in the mother.
