【国外最重的双胞胎】
一系列北卡罗来纳州的新生儿的体重把他们的父母吓得目瞪口呆,而且跻身史上最重婴儿的行列。一家北卡罗纳州的医院宣称Sean William Maynard 和 Abigail Rose Maynard 总重23磅1英两。
Forsyth医疗中心发言人Freda Springs说,周二,温斯顿沙兰的一家名为莎拉李的妇女健康中心的剖腹产室仅花了2分钟完成了这对双胞胎a的分娩工作。
Springs说男孩重10磅,14英两,女孩重12磅,3英两。他们的父母是温斯顿沙兰的Joey and Erin Maynard ,目前这对双胞胎情况良好。
尽管他们已经很重了,可是还不是最重的哦。院方说到,在1927年出生于阿肯色州的一对双胞胎比他们重4磅。医院调查员说道,那对双胞胎总重27磅,12英两,而且自1990年来,没有任何公共记录显示有任何双胞胎的重量超过这对阿肯色州的婴儿。
他们说这对Maynard的双胞胎超过了1997年公布的北卡罗来纳州的重量为18磅,10英两的双胞胎。
周五的医院新闻发布会上,妈妈和抱着裹在一条蓝色毯子里的辛恩,爸爸则轻轻摇着摇篮里身穿红色襁褓的妹妹。这对双胞胎首次公开亮相的时候静静地睡着。
