In her response, the mom detailed what it was like giving birth to her second child who weighed roughly six and a half kilograms.
The baby was so big that she needed the help of two doctors to deliver her child. "Oh you want to play the biggest baby?" she replied to the video. "I got you."

Sharing her story, the mom says: "At 38 weeks and one day, I had my second son via C-section with two doctors assisting. Because he came in at a whopping six and a half kilograms," adding that he also measured 60cm in length.
"That's right," she says. "I gave birth to
a toddler, who then spent 11 days in the NICU. Where clearly, he was the
biggest baby in there. The NICU didn't even have diapers for him or clothes,
they had to go upstairs to paediatrics and get size three diapers and he came
home in clothing, sized six to nine months."

Today, the child is five and is a healthy and happy boy who “loves baseball, football and Monster Trucks.”
