Jirong Long required a Caesarean section Wednesday to deliver Virginia Wenjing You.
The Guinness Book of World Records says the largest baby ever delivered was a boy weighing 23 pounds, 12 ounces in Seville, Ohio, in 1879.

Long, a Creighton genetics research fellow says the size of her daughter is amazing considering she and her husband are not big people.

Long is about 5'4”. She weighed 130 pounds before her pregnancy and peaked at 192 while she was expecting.

Her husband is about 5'9” and weighs 160 pounds.

Virginia already is wearing six-month-old sized clothing.
