A YouTube video of a newborn child clinging to its mother after an apparent cesarean section is quickly going viral.

The child is pulled away from its mother by a medical professional only to begin crying. Consequently, the attendant gives the child a bonding moment with its mother.

The minute-long video, posted Feb. 19, has nearly 2.3 million views to date.

More than 1,000 comments run the gamut of “awwww” and “<3” but this one stands out:

“Best video that I have ever seen … OMG that small hand on mother’s head … just love it … is so touching,” said YouTube user Nora Nini Friday.
