DENIA, Spain (WTVR) -- Doctors said a woman has given birth to the biggest baby ever born naturally in Spain.

Not so little Maria Lorena Marin weighed in at 13 pounds, 11 ounces Friday.

And yes, there was no cesarean-section. Little Maria was born naturally at a hospital on Spain's Mediterranean coast.

Maxime Marin, who is from the UK, said she birthed the child without pain medication. "I did not even need an epidural," Marin told the BBC.

Then again this is the 40-year-old’s fourth child.

However, reporters also quoted the baby’s mother saying that she knew the baby would be big, but not that big.

The baby's father is from Colombia.
