Eternal Connection: Twin Babies Embrace from Birth, Leaving Medical Professionals in Awe of Their Enchanting Bond
The photos and video depict a heartwarming scene of newborn twins embracing each other during their first bath, capturing the attention of viewers worldwide. The images were shared by Sonia Rochel, a midwife from Paris, on a social network, and the video was uploaded to YouTube, garnering millions of views.
Sonia Rochel designed a small bath tub and shower unit called “The Thalasso Baby Spa” that replicates the comforting sensation of being in the womb. In the video, the newborn sister and brother, just after birth, continue to embrace each other during their first bath as if they never want to be separated. They remain unfazed by the touch of the midwife or being submerged in water, tightly holding on to each other while floating in the warm basin.
The nurse in the video gently supports and cradles the delicate bodies of the twins, who appear peaceful and serene. Carefully, water is showered over their foreheads and eyes, ensuring their noses and mouths stay above the surface for easy breathing. Towards the end, the babies are lifted out of the bath, placed on a mat, and wrapped in towels to dry.
Sonia Rochel introduced this bathing method when the twins were only a few days old at the maternity clinic where they were born. She came up with the technique after experiencing the soothing sensation of water on her own face while showering. Observing that it made the babies move in a way similar to how they did in the womb, she decided to incorporate the method. This was not the first time Rochel had bathed twins together, and she expressed that she was not surprised by the infants’ heartwarming reaction in the video. She mentioned that witnessing the babies’ incredible response to the water is always a beautiful sight.
It’s important to note that Sonia Rochel’s unique bathing technique, known as The Thalasso Baby Bath, involves delicately cradling the baby in the bath and gently running water over their face, simulating the experience of being in the womb. While the technique appears relaxing and the twins in the video seem calm, Sonia emphasizes that it is not recommended for parents to attempt this at home without proper training and guidance.
