Mum gives birth to 'biggest baby' and people joke he's already paying taxes

A mum has left people stunned after she revealed how much her son weighed when he was born.

TikToker @tawnee117 asked fellow users to share their stories about birthing the "biggest babies" - and one mum definitely delivered.

Erika Weber replied to the video, claiming that her son weighed a whopping 12lbs 6oz when he was born.

In a video that has been viewed more than five million times, Erika shared a photo of her son just moments after he was born after she gave birth via c-section - something her doctor strongly advised.

She said: "So everyone keeps tagging me in this and telling me I should do this.

"At 37 weeks I went in for an ultrasound and my son was weighing in at 9lb 15oz so we scheduled for a c-section.

"I ended up being put into labour the day before c-section and I still went with a c-section because the doctor highly advised that, and...

"I had a baby that was 12lbs 6oz and he came out of the hospital wearing three-month clothing, size one diapers and now he's six months old and wearing 18-month clothing."

People were stunned (TikTok)

Since being posted, the video has racked up more than 1.1 million likes and 5,200 comments from stunned viewers.

One person said: "Bro came out with a whole credit score."

Another put: "That child came out already three years old."
