Well, it's not actually a one year old, but a Winston-Salem woman gave birth to twins last week and their combined weight was 23 pounds and 1 ounce. Twenty-two pounds is about the average weight for a one year old child. Can you imagine carrying around that much baby during pregnancy? The boy weighed 10 pounds, 14 ounces and the girl weighed 12 pounds, 3 ounces.
I'm a twin and, if I remember correctly, my brother and I combined to weigh around 12 pounds when we were born. So those Winston-Salem twins pretty much are twice our size. If I was a woman, I would cringe at the thought of birthing that much poundage. Heck, I'm not a woman and I still cringe.
