The ‘giant’ boy – VnExpress Life

AmericaAt birth, Kason weighed 3.6 kg like most other babies, but after two months of breastfeeding, he started to grow like a baby. By 11 months, the baby has weighed nearly 14 kg.

The baby’s mother, Alexa Priego of Manhattan, New York, said that Kason’s weight gain rate was surprisingly fast, gaining one kilogram per month. Currently, the baby must use the clothes of a 3-year-old child.

Whenever mother and daughter walk on the street, people often stop them. “They find the baby too cute. When they know the baby’s real age, everyone is stunned,” said Alexa, an employee of a hospital.

According to the US CDC, the average weight of an 11-month-old boy is about 9 kg, while the standard of the World Health Organization is 10 kg. A 2011 study found that nearly one-third of babies in the United States were overweight, of which 32 percent were excessively overweight by the age of nine months.

However, the doctors confirmed that the boy Kason was completely healthy. The reason the baby is so chubby is because mother Alexa produces too much milk.

Alexa also said, this is not the first time she has such a fat baby. Two children Owen, 10 years old and Gracie, 4 years old are also big. “I’ve probably always been able to raise giant babies,” she said.

Now baby Kason has switched to formula milk and started eating solids. Boy chubby is losing those chubby cheeks and those protruding arms and legs. This makes a mother like Alexa feel “a little sad”.

Kason is hyperactive, crawls very quickly and is clinging to the arm of the chair to go. “She is very easy to raise, easygoing and always smiling to everyone,” the mother added.
