The baby that nobody wants to bounce on their knee
News that a not-so-little chap called Chun Chun – born last Saturday in China's Henan province at a staggering 15.5 lbs – has set the record as the country's heaviest baby, begs the question: what does the big blighter weigh the same as? Well, he weighs the same as seven bags of sugar – or just over 11 iPads – and is twice the weight of the average domestic cat.
Of more interest to his mother will be that he's as heavy as nearly 200 large nappies or more than 1,000 baby wipes. Just about enough to get him started, then.
