A mum has given birth to a baby weighing an incredible 11lbs 8oz - making the new-born the average size of a three month old. Sarah Dines, 35, gave birth to baby Montague 11 months ago via an emergency C-section.
Baby Monty went straight into toddler clothes and now wears items made for two to three year olds. Initially wanting a water birth at her home in Broadstone, Dorset, without pain relief, Sarah had to eventually have a C-section, partly due to the size of her baby.
Sarah said: "He was so big when he was born, he looked ridiculous. When the doctor's took him out, they were all laughing and I didn't know why at first. One of them said he was ready for school, and the little towel they wrapped him just didn't fit. He was in the 99.9th centile for height and 99.6th for weight."
