Newborn twins won’t stop cuddling like they did in the womb
Having a twin can be an incredible thing, having someone who’s always there for you right from the start of life, a bond that lasts a lifetime
One incredible video shows just how deep that bond is, even starting before birth: two newborn twin boys refused to stop cuddling together like they did in the womb!
In a video that has been viewed nearly 50 million times on YouTube, the babies, less than two months old, receive a bath and keep holding one another, wrapping their little arms and legs around each other.
The twins are receiving a special baby bath, developed by Sonia Rochel, a maternity nurse and grandmother from Paris, France.
The technique is designed for infants younger than two months old because it is meant to replicate the feeling of being in the womb.
This might explain why the twins are so cuddly with one another—they want to be close to each other like they were before being born.

What an incredible video! It shows the real loving bond between two twin siblings right from birth.
Twin power! 5 stories about the amazing bond between twins
We asked twins and their parents to share photos and stories about the incredible bonds between multiples. Read on for their heartwarming and hilarious stories.
- Mom Shannon Abilla writes on Facebook, “My twins are so close! They do everything together and are best friends. My son was in the NICU for a week and when he became agitated the nurses would bring his sister in and lay her down next to him and he would immediately calm down and his heart rate would get back to normal, it was amazing to see!”
Mom Kaylee McDonald writes on Facebook, “My 2 1/2 year old twin girls… They are what you call “Mirror twins.” They do everything opposite of each other. Ones right handed the other is left. One’s a Tom boy the other is a girly girl.”- Mom Nicole White Brock writes on Facebook, “My boys have their own beds, but after many mornings of finding them in the same bed we finally pushed them together. They sleep across each other. They say they’re going to get a house together when they get older. I hope they always have a strong bond. Love my twins!”
Mom Traci Whittington Craft writes on Facebook, “My sweet fraternal twins are now 9 years old and even now when they sleep together, I will find them asleep as they are in this picture from when we brought them home from the hospital. I’m beyond blessed to have been selected to be a mommy of twins. They bless me each and every day.”- Twin Shelley Skuster writes on Facebook, “My sis Lindee Jeneary and I have been best friends since the moment we rode in boxes together. She loves me so much, she wore my glasses as a disguise and failed a chemistry test for me in high school. I have since forgiven her. Now we live 2.5 hours apart and have families of our own, but we talk at least five times a day. Our husbands learned early on it came with the ‘deal.’ I love my sis and grateful I get to experience life’s ups and downs with her!”
