An Indonesian woman has given birth to an 8.7kg baby boy in a hospital in North Sumatra province, local media Jakarta Globe reported Thursday.
The big baby, 62cm long, was delivered by Caesarean section on Monday, a staff member at Abdul Manan General Hospital in the town of Asahan told the Jakarta Globe.
The staff member, who declined to be identified, said the healthy baby was born to 41-year-old woman named Ani, who is a mother of three.
Records show the largest baby born in the country in recent years weighed 6.9kg and was born to a diabetic woman in Jakarta in 2007.
