BESSACARR, England, April 23 (UPI) -- A British mother said she and her partner were shocked when their newborn son came out weighing 13 pounds and 15 ounces.
Sharon Needham, 35, of Bessacarr, England, said she and baby Harry's father, Paul Crossland, 51, were stunned to see the size of their baby, which Doncaster Royal Infirmary employees said is the heaviest newborn at the hospital since they began keeping computer records in 1994, the Doncaster Free Press reported Friday.
The parents said they had to buy the child clothing designed for 3- to 6-month-old babies.
