What This Newborn Does Moments After He Was Born Left Everyone Speechless

The first meeting between a mother and infant is extremely powerful. That first meeting sets the tone for the relationship the two will have for the rest of their lives.

In this video, a mother is introduced to her brand new baby seconds after the successful delivery. The mother is too tired after her delivery to hold him, but she still manages to whisper reassurances to him while the nurse holds him to the mother’s face.

Human babies are born with heavily blurred vision and hearing, but the newborn still knows his mother’s voice and smell. He grips tightly onto her face instinctively and even cries when the nurse tries to take him away from his mother to be cleaned and dressed.

This video has totaled over 11 million views on YouTube in the past year. After seeing it, It’s really not hard to tell why!
