In Aberdeen, 15 pound baby was born. The baby born on Dec. 2, 2014 is one of the heaviest babies born in the U.S. According to the Examiner, Yessica Ortiz Delgado previously gave birth to her two other children who weigh almost 12 pounds, but the Aberdeen 15 pound baby was her biggest baby.

 Earlier in January, a 15-pound and 2 ounces baby was born in California that beat the record of the biggest baby in America who weighs 14 pounds. The 15 pound baby was 24 inches long and just like the Aberdeen 15 pound baby, his mother was really surprised to know that she delivered a huge baby.

INQSTR reports that the mother and the baby were doing well after the baby's birth. There's no problem with their health and the 15-pound baby appears to be healthy with no medical attention needed. Both were doing fine and alert and they could go home in the next few days.

Grays Harbor Community Hospital, where the Aberdeen 15 pound baby was born delivers more than 500 babies yearly. The hospital reports that their average baby born weighs about 5.5 to 10 pounds, and the 15 pound baby was really a surprise for them.

The hospital director at Grays Harbor Community Hospital told the media reporters that the father of the Aberdeen 15 pound baby went out to buy new set of clothes of larger size since they were not expecting that the baby will be so big. Apparently, they were not aware that baby Francisco could be 15 pounds at birth.

"We deliver babies of all sizes, but it is not every day that we deliver and care for a baby as large as Francisco," the director of Grays Harbor Community Hospital was quoted stating to reporters while she was expressing her surprise with the birth of the 15 pound baby from Aberdeen.

Christian Post says that the 15-pound baby born in California is the biggest baby in the world, but not the heaviest. There were also two 15-pound babies who were recently born in the year 2012 in China and in England in 2013. The largest baby born in the world is Ann Bates from Canada, who was born 23 pounds and 12 ounces in 1879.

According to Daily Mail, babies are born these days with higher birth weight due to the changes in the diet.  The current average birth weight for boys is 7 pounds 8 ounces and 7 pounds 4 ounces for girls, but with time, the rise of birth weight is not going down.

Cases of Macrosomia, the babies born beyond the tipping point (Royal College of Midwives use 8 pounds and 13 ounces as tipping point) have been leaping in years.  Research in U.K. has found that more babies were born bigger today because mothers are also overweight.

The Aberdeen 15 pound baby is a rare record for the Grays Harbor Community Hospital. The 15-pound baby was healthy despite the baby's unbelievable weight, a blessing that the couple should thank for.
