In future years, when he’s all grown up, we hope “little” Chun Chun remembers to be extra nice to his mother on her birthday, and Mother’s Day, and, well, pretty much every day of the year.
Weighing in at 15.5 pounds, the boy may be the heaviest baby in the country’s history.
Chun Chun’s mother, 29-year-old Wang Yujuan, remarked that had she sensed something was going to be a little different about Chun Chun, who arrived via cesarean section in China’s Henan Province, even before he was born.
“I clearly felt that my body was more clumsy than when I had been pregnant with my daughter. My belly was bigger than it was then,” Wang remarked to reporters.
“I guessed the baby would be between 10 and 11 pounds. I never expected to hear that he weighs 15.5 pounds.”
The daughter, now 6, weighed a not insignificant 8.8 pounds at birth.
Chun Chun’s father told the Sun that he is thrilled to have a dragon baby, especially “such a big, fat son.”
Chun Chun is thought to be the heaviest baby in the country’s history, but only just barely. In recent years, three babies weighing 15.4 pounds were born in China.
