Brit Maxime Marin has given birth to the largest baby ever born naturally in Spain. Marin’s baby daughter arrived into the world weighing a hefty 13lbs 11oz.
Marin, 40, delivered her daughter naturally and without the help of an epidural.
Doctors described the birth at the Hospital Marina Salud in Alicante as “uncomplicated”.
Maxime, who has three older children, said she knew the baby would be big, “but not that big”.

Dr Javier Rius, the head of the hospital’s department of obstetrics and gynaecology, said: “In my 40-year professional career I have never known of any case of a birth with this weight by natural childbirth.
“We are all very satisfied with the work which we carried out.”
