On average, babies weight about seven to eight pounds. In 1879, a boy weighing 23 pounds 12 ounces was born in Ohio to Anna Bates, a Canadian woman who was 7-foot-5 1/2. The baby, though died after 11 hours. The heaviest baby born to a woman without a special medical condition was a 22-pound 8-ounce boy. He was born in 1955 to Carmelina Fedele of Aversa, Italy. No bigger babies have been born lately, say the folks at Guinness Book of Records.
