Key Takeaway
A Canadian couple welcomed an extraordinary addition to their family when they gave birth to a baby boy named Sonny. Weighing 14 pounds and 8 ounces, Sonny shattered records at the Cambridge Memorial Hospital in Ontario. This remarkable birth caught the attention of the media, as Sonny is more than double the size of an average newborn.
A Record-Breaking Birth
Sonny’s birth was truly extraordinary. Not only is he double the size of an average newborn, but he also holds the record for the highest birth weight at the hospital since 2010. Britteney Ayres, Sonny’s mother, delivered him through a cesarean section.
The proud parents, Britteney and her husband Chance, couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw their newborn son. They even went on Good Morning America to share their joy and talk about their “bundle of joy.” Chance expressed his astonishment, saying, “Never in our wildest dreams did we think he’d be that big.” Britteney referred to Sonny as a “blessing” and expressed her gratitude for the support system she had at home after her hospital stay.
A Growing Family
Sonny is not the first big baby that Britteney has delivered. In fact, both her daughter Marigold and son Lucky weighed over 13 pounds at birth. Sonny now joins his four older siblings: Chance, aged 6; Everett, aged 5; Lucky, aged 3; and Marigold, aged 1. This enormous addition to the Ayres family is sure to bring even more love and joy into their home.
