I was expecting twins and only one of 6.4 kilos arrived!

It happened at the hospital in Tampa, west Florida. A woman went to give birth to her babies, because she was convinced that with the size of her belly twins would come, and the surprise happened when He only had one baby weighing 6.4 kilos.

The delivery lasted 18 hours and, incredible as it may seem, it developed naturally. You may have to see that he was his third child and that the first two were also born something big.

How could I think they were twins?

Surely you will be asking the same question that I asked myself. Today, in pregnancy controls they do ultrasounds and tell you if one, two or whatever comes. It can happen, sometimes, that they tell you that it is one and it turns out that they are two, so that the second one hides and is not seen, although it is very rare. But let them see two and only one comes out, that does not happen.

The issue is that nobody ever saw two babies. In fact, nobody ever saw a baby until week 35 of gestation, and it was because the mother went to the doctor because in recent weeks she had noticed a considerable increase in weight. The doctor, after doing an examination, surprised him by telling him that she was pregnant and that he was already 35 weeks old.

Although at that time they only saw one baby, she became convinced that there would be two. He has a twin sister, so it was not difficult for her to end up believing that two children were gestated in her belly.

Now, when he felt that the head was coming out he knew, instantly, that it weighed more than 4.5 kilos. The reason is that he has a 5-year-old girl who was born weighing 4.5 kilos and a 1-year-old boy who weighed 4 kilos. The third, of course, far exceeds them.

But it's not healthier

But being born very big, although it may seem like a benefit, as it seems a healthy and strong child, entails some risks and situations that must be controlled. Therefore, although he was born at the end of January, he is still admitted to the hospital, where he is kept under observation waiting to be able to discharge him definitively.
