Two French newborns were filmed taking a bath and continued to hug even when being dunked in the water. Since it was posted on YouTube a week ago, the video has been viewed more than 4 million times.

Rochel, a midwife, made the clip to show off her “Thalasso Baby Spa,” which is used for babies to replicate the feeling of being inside the mothers’ womb, reported the Daily Mail.

Another added: “Amazing, makes me want to make a baby...”
