Jennifer Medlock had been dealing with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome all her life, so it was no surprise to she and her husband, Eric, that conceiving a child would be a challenge. 

As luck would have it, the couple would conceive not just once, but twice - and the second baby would weigh a whopping 15 pounds. 

Jennifer Medlock got the heart-rending diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome a few years ago. This condition is one of the leading causes of infertility. Doctors told Jennifer and her husband, Eric, that the chances of her becoming pregnant was extremely low.

Fortunately, with the help of fertility treatments as well as the prayers of friends and family, the couple proved that they could overcome the medical diagnosis. They welcomed their daughter, Annabelle, into the world two years ago.

Annabelle came into the world weight 9 pounds, 10 ounces, at birth. That is significantly more than the average newborn who weighs in at 7.5 pounds.The couple decided that one wasn't enough. Jennifer got pregnant again for a second time. With Annabelle come in at just over 9.5 pounds, Mom thought her son would likely come in at 10 pounds or more.

The doting parents were in for a big surprise, however, as baby Ali would come to weigh a whopping 15 pounds at birth - making him the largest baby to have ever been born at Arlington hospital in Texas. 

"He is meant for something big," Jennifer told CBS news. "Maybe not football, everyone keeps saying that."

Ali was certainly a surprise. Do you know of any kids that broke records at birth? let us know. Give your friends and family the chance to read the story for themselves.
