| Baby Aliya Saleem |
At just 10 months old, baby Aliyah already weighs 41 pounds, putting her at risk for serious health issues including diabetes and high cholesterol. The weight for an average 10-month-old girl, in contrast, is between 14 and 21 pounds.
Aliya’s sister grew obese with similar speed and tragically didn’t live to age 2, says her indian mom.
Experts say that hormones are to blame.
The fact that the family has had another child go through the same changes leads her to believe that there’s a genetic condition at the root of it all. More shocking is the fact that Aliyah was not born Obese and she also has a 5 years old brother who is of average weight. However, by four months, Aliyah started to get big. In the six months since then Aliya, who reportedly loves to eat biscuits and curries, has grown to the weight of an average 6-year-old, prompting her parents to panic and turn to doctors.
