Lokman consumes 1.3 gallons of milk and 2.2 pounds of rice flour every day and is supected to be suffering from a rare hormone disorder.

I hope that baby was delivered by Caesarean??

He is 11 months old now. The newspaper article did not say what his birth weight is. I guess he has to wear Depends since none of the baby diapers will fit him.

That is a good weight for a 4 year old.

And I thought my friend's baby was big. My friend's has a baby and he is 4 months old. At his 4 month checkup, he weighed 20 pounds! My cousin's baby is 14 months old and she only weighs 21 pounds. Only a pound difference! My friend's baby is already in a 12 month old clothes. I think she overfeeds him. Feeds him everytime he cries. She is a nurse, so she should know better.
