Finnley Patonai, born on October 4, is already wearing clothes for babies aged 6 to 9 months.
Cary and Tim Patonai were expecting a large baby. But the Arizona couple got the surprise of their life when their son Finnley was born two weeks early, weighing 14 pounds, 1 ounce — about double the size of an average newborn. He was also tall, measuring 23.75 inches.. “The OB/GYN who performed the C-section said that in 27 years he had never seen a newborn that size. There was so much excitement in the delivery.
"Two of the miscarriages were sets of twins," Cary revealed."It was was traumatic for the whole family — especially our oldest child. Each loss would break his little heart." The Patonais also share sons Devlen, 10, and Everett, 2, who were born weighing 8 pounds, 2 ounces, and 11 pounds, 11 ounces, respectively.If Finnley had arrived on his due date, Cary's doctors estimate that he would have weighed roughly 16.5 pounds. According to the“I’m using to carrying big babies, but this was on another level,” Cary said. “It got to the point where I could hardly move. It would take me 30 minutes to recover from taking a shower.
At two weeks old, Finnley is wearing size 2 diapers and clothing made for babies ages 6 to 9 months. Cary describes her third child as “snuggly and healthy.” She noted that he's a"great sleeper" and has a hearty appetite. “Typically, newborns are taking in about one to two ounces of milk,” she said. “Finnley is eating around four-and-a-half ounces.”Cary and Tim can't stop staring at their sweet bundle of joy.
