October 1, 2007: Teeny baby

Undertoad · 10-01-2007, 02:10 PM

It's the Monday Neatorama collaboration image!

The Mail has it again. Weighing in at a record-setting 10 oz. is tiny Kimberly, the smallest surviving birth in Germany. She just missed the world record by an ounce. Since we had the massive baby a few days ago, I thought it would be appropriate to bring this one in as its counterpart.

They compare her to the size of a mobile phone, and there's the pen for comparison. Here's a blurrier shot but with an adult hand:

I'm reminded of Bill Cosby's great "Childbirth"... "Darling, I love you very, very much... you just gave birth to a lizard."

Or a tiny clay statue of a baby. That's sad.

The bar on the left represents the weight of the 10 oz. baby.
The bar on the right represents the weight of the 17.1 lbs baby.
(yeah, I know I labeled the second bar wrong.)

That's not cooked! Put it back in the oven.

(The horrified first response.)

What a poor little baby.

I do hope this one won't have any learning disorders or developmental problems as many of these extreme preemies do.

10 ounces?! My farts weigh more than ten ounces!

looks cooked enough to me. like a sausage but don't think it would fill you up.
