YouTube Screenshot, T&T Creative Media There is so much emotion in this video of a little girl seeing her baby sister for the first time. Waiting is probably one of the things we all hate doing, but for this little girl, being patient has given her a great reward. Presley’s newborn sister, Charleigh, was born prematurely and had to stay for 2 weeks in the NICU. The wing where she stayed was closed to visitors because of flu season so they didn’t have the chance to see her yet. Presley and her brother, Reef Brooks, came home to a big surprise one day in October 2018.
Presley’s body surges with excitement once she sees the baby and runs over to greet baby Charleigh with a kiss and hug. On the other hand, Reef gave a sweet smile but also scratched the back of his head and stepped back to sink into this new reality. Presley is evidently ready to become a big sister but she first took a moment to really let it all out. Her actions changed as Charleigh was placed in her arms. She became calm and collected but still couldn’t help but admire her new baby sister. It was a beautifully captured moment mom can show to them in the future. Watch Presley’s precious reaction when she sees her baby sister for the first time in the video below. Watch Video Here:
Social media platforms have changed the way we are able to communicate and receive all types of information. Between Facebook, Instagram and now the powerhouse platform, TikTok, people have access to information at their fingertips. The app, TikTok, which was created in September 2016, has taken the internet by storm. The platform allows users to create, edit and post video content. It encourages creatives to find their niche content and beyond.
For one woman in Washington, TikTok gave her a platform and outlet to share her journey of motherhood. Shahnta Hoare from Silverdale, Washington, is a mom to four boys. The mom has created a niche profile for mothers and their postpartum experiences. Having had her fourth baby, Ozzy, shared in May 2022 how she would switch up her child’s care routine compared to her other three children. Hoare documented that she would not be bathing her newborn son for quite some time. Her reasoning? She wants to keep her baby’s skin in tip-top shape.
When a baby is born, a substance called vernix covers their skin or appears deep in their skin folds. This substance is a protective coating that forms on a baby’s skin in utero. The substance is known to be thick and greasy, full of fatty acids and proteins that act as nourishment to the baby’s skin and overall health. It can be beneficial to a baby’s gut bacteria, as well as fight off bad bacteria.
After Hoare announced she would leave this substance on her newborn son for as long as possible post-birth, the internet was up in arms. While some followers and users found this to be unhealthy or unsanitary, other mothers said they also did the exact same thing.

“He didn’t get wiped and he won’t get his first bath for like many more weeks,” Hoare shared on her TikTok.
“We actually don’t give baths for like the first month. Jackson had his in the hospital, I didn’t advocate for myself and unfortunately, the twins and Jackson got wiped off. But Ozzy did not get wiped of anything,” the mom shared with her followers.
“I know this may be gross to some but when it’s your own baby you’re like ‘this stuff is so good,’” she admitted.
Internet users had many things to say about her choice to keep her newborn baby unbathed for the first few weeks of his life.
“I couldn’t imagine anything worse…,” one TikTok user commented. Another person agreed with that sentiment. “I do not understand some mothers,” another internet user said.
However, this mom of four said she believed it to be great for her baby’s overall skin and health.
“Vernix is actually really good to keep on their skin, it’s actually super super moisturising — it’s almost a little oily. He had it in his neck creases, his ears, fingers, toes — it’s the best,” Hoare shared.
Many internet users agreed with Hoare too. “Some of you fail to realise that vernix was put there for a reason. Our babies are born with it because it is an added layer of protection,” one TikTok user said. Another person said: “I swear! The smell is insane. I was addicted to it. Didn’t bathe my babies until they were all a month old.”
Hoare’s video has over 10 million views on TikTok and over one million likes. Over 4,000 comments can be seen on her video post too.
Do you agree with this mother of four? Regardless we hope that her baby Ozzy stays nice and healthy! If you found this article interesting — feel free to send it to other friends who will think the same!
This amazing story began eight years ago when a young mother of a 3-year-old baby Becky Jo Allen found out she was pregnant again. Becky and her husband Liam Tierney have always wanted a big family, but when they were told at their first ultrasound that they were expecting triplets, they were a little scared.
After all, when a family doubles in an instant, one must be prepared for this. The babies were born at 31 weeks, much ahead of schedule, and weighed just over a kilogram. But the doctors, who had seen even smaller newborns, were surprised not by this, but by how much all three were similar to each other – not just the same facial features, but even moles in the same places.
Everything looked as if all three were identical twins. But how can this be, the worldly-wise obstetrician-gynecologists and geneticists wondered? After studying a large layer of literature, doctors came to the conclusion that this happens, but very rarely. In fact, it is one case in 200 million that three embryos develop in one fetal egg. Therefore, Becky was offered to do a DNA test of the boys, which confirmed that all three are absolutely identical twins.
This uniqueness even made the family famous. Newspapers wrote about the twins and TV channels told, that Becky did not wait for real help, and at some point, unable to withstand the load with four kids, Liam left the family. He still helps Becky a little financially, but the entire burden of upbringing, development and care fell entirely on the then 23-year-old young mother.
Becky does not complain and does not regret anything, because next to her is her eldest daughter Indiana, who turned 8 this year. She takes care of her younger brothers with pleasure and helps her mother in everything. Both parents and sister Lauren, who moved in with Becky immediately after Liam left, help take care of the children.
8-year-old triplets Roan, Rocco, and Roman still look a lot alike. But if earlier only their mother could distinguish them, because only Becky saw the difference in the color of the moles between the eyes of Rocco and Roman, and Roan Becky found a mole on the leg, which the brothers did not have, now they are distinguished by other close people, because the characters boys are completely different.
Roan grows up to be a real leader and ringleader in all games, Rocco is the calmest and affectionate, and Roman is a big owner. He does not want to share not only toys but also maternal attention with anyone. At the same time, the twins prefer the same toys, so Becky has to multiply all purchases by three.
Boys, following the example of their older sister, love to play with small soft toys in houses, but, of course, they do not forget about scooters and their favorite football, because the famous Liverpool football club plays in their city.
Becky has finally fulfilled her lifelong dream: he is now studying to be a pediatric nurse and plans to work in the same maternity hospital where her babies were born. Most of all, she is grateful to the doctors that everything is fine with her twins. After all, for a mother, her children are always unique, and it is not so important what the DNA test showed there.

In the serene ambiance of a lovingly decorated nursery, there resided a little baby girl named Emmy. With her chubby cheeks and sparkling blue eyes, she was an embodiment of pure innocence and joy.
