The medical professionals immediately determined that the unborn child would be too big for her to carry to full term, so the C-section was performed the next day, and Angerson was delivered, according to the Daily Mail.
Pessoa said to O Globo, “We are just feeling delighted, happiness, and thanks for everything working out in this case,” emphasizing that the baby’s size made it a “unusual” and “risky” situation.
The majority of full-term newborns (39 to 40 weeks gestation) weigh between 6 and 9 pounds, according to the American Pregnancy Association.
While speaking with O Globo, Dos Santos expressed her gratitude to her medical team for the care she and Angerson are getting.
The OBGYN at Hospital Padre Colombo, where Angerson was delivered, Dr. Artemisia Pessoa, said that neonates of Angerson’s size usually have respiratory issues and high blood sugar levels, making their lives more difficult than those of newborns of normal weight.
What’s become of 16-pound baby boy Angerson? Is Macrosomia a Problem for Him?
The baby was born through cesarean section and was 2 feet long at birth. The baby’s weight may have changed as a result of the mother’s diabetes.
They are happy to hear that both the baby boy and his mother are healthy. Santos compared her anguish like being struck by two tractor-trailers at once.
Large infants are the result of macrosomia, a potentially deadly syndrome that forces women to have enormous offspring.
Macrosomia may result from a variety of factors. High blood sugar levels in mothers over 35 are more likely to develop macrosomia. A big baby increases a mother’s risk of developing macrosomia in subsequent pregnancies.
The chance of Macrosomia is increased by being overweight before to pregnancy and by accumulating a significant amount of weight during pregnancy. It’s noteworthy to note that Latinas are more likely to have Macrosomia during pregnancy. The probabilities are increased by the fact that we are having a boy.
The largest child to survive infancy was born in 1955 and weighed 22 pounds, 8 ounces, according to Today.
