    Re: Big baby @ Lenox Hill...

    "Victor, nicknamed "Fat Man" by his parents, has been the hit of the maternity ward - and neither his mom nor his doctors can explain why he came out so big."

    Now there's good journalism.

    First, if this mom had prenatal care, her OB should have noticed something wrong. A baby that big usually results from a pregnancy complicated by diabetes.

    Second, a sonogram would have shown a fat baby.

    Third, there may be a genetic predisposition to being weight-challenged (see photo).

    This poor kid is on the road to lifelong obesity and disease.

    Welcome to contemporary America, kid.
