世界上最小的女婴（世界上最重的女婴诞生了）

An Indian woman has given birth to a 15lb (6.8kg) baby girl that doctors say could possibly be the heaviest child ever born in the country.

印度一名妇女产下15磅（6.8公斤）重的女婴，据医生说，这很可能是印度历来出生的体重最重的婴儿。

The infant weighs the same as a six-month-old in a country where new-born babies normally weigh 2.5-3.5kg.

这名女婴的体重相当于6个月大的宝宝。印度新生儿的体重通常介于2.5至3.5公斤之间。

Her mother Nandini, 20, gave birth by a Caesarean section, at a hospital in the southern state of Karnataka.

20岁的产妇南迪尼在南部卡纳塔克邦的1家医院经剖腹手术诞下女婴。

Doctors said they were conducting tests to find out the reason why the baby was so heavy.

医生表示，他们正在检视这名女婴体重为何如此惊人。

"It is the biggest baby in India, I can say. Whether it is the biggest in the world, I cannot say right now," Dr Venkatesh R, district health official in Hassan district, told BBC Hindi’s Imran Qureshi.

哈森地区卫生官员凡卡德希在接受BBC印度采访时说：“她是否是全球最大的婴儿我不知道，但我敢说，她是印度最大的婴儿。”

The baby is not just heavy, she is also very tall, doctors said.

医生说，这名女婴不仅体重过人，个头也很高。

"The baby’s height is 62cm (24.4in) as against the normal Indian baby’s height of 50cm," said Dr SR Kumar, who is looking after Nandini and her baby.

负责照顾南迪尼和宝宝的医生库玛说：“这名婴儿身长62公分（24.4英寸），而一般印度新生儿身长为50公分。”

Since overweight newborns are normal in cases where the mother is diabetic, the first thing the doctors did was to check if Nandini had diabetes, but they found to their surprise that she had had no such complaints.

假如母亲患有糖尿病，新生儿体重通常会超标，因此医生做的第1件事便是确认南迪尼是否罹患糖尿病，令人意外的是，她并没有这类疾病。

"We have done an ultrasound and conducted blood tests on Nandini, but we didn’t find any abnormality," Dr Kumar said.

库玛说，“我们对南迪尼进行了超音波和血液检测，但未发现任何异常。”

"We have sent the samples for a test called an inborn error of metabolism. We should get the result after 48 hours."

“我们已经发送样本做先天性代谢缺陷的检测，48小时后就能出结果。”

The record so far for the heaviest Indian baby is held by a boy, born to Firdous Khatun of Uttar Pradesh in November 2015. The baby boy weighed 14.77lb (6.7kg).

目前为止印度最重的新生儿是2015年11月出生在Uttar Pradesh irdous Khatun的一名男孩，出生时14.77磅（6.7公斤）。

The world record for the heaviest baby was for a boy born to Carmelina Fedele in Aversa, Italy, in September 1955. The boy weighed 22lb 8oz (10.2 kg).

世界最重的新生儿1955年9月在意大利阿韦萨卡尔梅利纳出生，重约22.8磅（10.2公斤）。
