A teenage mum has given birth to a baby weighing in at a whopping 15lbs, which is thought to be the heaviest female ever born.

The 19-year-old mother, known only as Nandini, gave birth to the child by cesarean section this week - who was around TWICE the size of an average newborn.

Staff at the hospital in Hassan, India, were shocked at the size of the as-yet-unnamed tot, who is being monitored in the neonatal intensive care unit.

Local Health officer Dr Venkatesh Raju said: “In my 25 years of experience, I had never seen such a big baby. She is a miracle.

“I believe she is not only the heaviest baby born in India but the heaviest baby girl ever born in the world.”

Gynaecologist Dr Poornima Manu, who delivered the baby, added: “She came as a big surprise for all of us.

“The surgery took place for nearly half an hour and it was free of any risk. She is really big and beautiful…

“Both the mother and the child are doing fine and we will discharge them once we are confident of the baby’s health.”

Mum Nandini weighs nearly 15 stone herself and is 5’9 tall - but she had no idea she was about to give birth to such a big baby.

And while her size hinted at high sugar levels, doctors confirmed that she is not diabetic - something that usually causes obesity in new-born infants.

Dr Raju added: “I had personally gone to see her. She is a beautiful gift of God. I am happy that she is doing well.”
