Marie Michel gave birth to a 14-pound,
13-ounce, 23 inch long baby boy on September
12, 2006 at William W. Backus Hospital in
Connecticut. It was Michel's fifth child and
this one definitely hit the record books. A
typical new born weighs around 8 pounds!
Stephon Hendrix Louis-Jean (the new born)
broke the hospital's record by 1 pound and
13 ounces. It had been 18 years since the
last record was set at Backus Hospital. And
Michel was no stranger to large children.
Her eldest son weighed in at 9 pounds. Her
twins weighed in at 8.5 pounds each (that's
17 pounds total)! And her youngest was 12
pounds. Stephon, less than 24 hours old,
fits into clothes for a 6-month-old and was
much too big for new born diapers.
