A 16-pound baby born this morning in Longview holds the new hospital record. JaMichael Brown is more than twice the weight of the average baby ... which is about seven pounds. CBS 19'S Monique Bird went by the hospital to check on the mom and baby.
Janet Johnson of Longview is the proud mother of one of the biggest babies ever born in Texas. JaMichael Brown was born Friday morning at Good Shepherd Medical Center.
"When they pulled the baby out, they could tell that he was huge," says Janet. "And then they weighed him."
Weeks ago, doctors told Janet and her Fiance Michael Brown their son would weigh 12 or 13 pounds at birth.
So for their baby shower ...
"I just said we were expecting a big baby," says Janet. "To not get any newborn stuff."
But preparing for a thirteen pound baby wasn't enough. JaMichael came out weighing 16 pounds, one ounce and he's two feet long.
