The first five minutes of DRP's life. This video was taken a few minutes after my son was born. It shows the skillful and efficient method used by the attending nurse to measure, weigh, and clear the nose and throat of my beautiful newborn baby, moments after being born. While it may seem "rough" to some people, the way the nurse handled my son did not hurt him at all, and I never felt she was being too rough. He was born by C-Section, which is why he wasn't immediately placed with his mother for skin to skin contact, as she was being sutured. When I uploaded this video, I had no idea this little bundle of joy would reach so many people and be viewed so many times. I'm so glad I recorded this, and I'm glad to share the beauty of this moment that was one of the most beautiful and joyful of my life.

    Cute, adorable little baby, very smart when someone holds her hand she keeps quiet, and even tried to open her eyes to see and recognise voices.

    Everytime he cried, just a touch soothes him. This might be the most satisfying thing ever.

  • Please treat this beautiful little angel with tenderness and compassion...

    There is no more beautiful thing in this world than a newborn baby.
  • Your child is beautiful and now being 11 years old you must be so proud. God bless all of you and your wonderful family. 😘

    Newborns tickle me when they are crying. It's like they will stop and then think about why they were crying. Then start back. So precious. Mad at those old bright lights.

    Poor baby. I like how he's comforted when his dad holds his fingers.
  • Amazing how he stops crying everytime someone touches him. There's so much we don't know about the transition between the mother's womb and the outside world.
  • He calmed down when he felt his dad’s finger. But it’s hard for them with all the medical stuff they have to endure.
  • Calm down peeps, little baby is fine. It just looks like she’s rough and she the crying is good for his lungs. They are weighing and measuring him. They deliver them all day, everyday. Very healthy! Congratulations to the parents. Such a beautiful newborn baby.
  • Awe i love his newborn cry. He came from a warm place. And now he dont like all thats happening.
