The Moment a New Mom Met Her Preemie For the First Time Left Everyone Speechless

It's no surprise why this video of a new mom holding her newborn son for the first time is going viral — the breathtaking clip captures the exact moment this mother fell completely in love.

After Jessica delivered her baby boy 10 weeks early, he was quickly rushed to the NICU for evaluation. During this emotional time, the new mom was only able to briefly see her newborn and had to wait close to 60 hours before she could finally hold Hugo for the first time.

There may not be any words to describe how Jessica was feeling, so this video of her finally touching Hugo to her chest — and delicately using a finger to stroke his tiny back — shows the undeniable power of a mother's love.

"The Exact Moment She Fell Completely In Love With Him

"This is a video of the first time Jessica held her 10 week premature baby, Hugo.

After being delivered by c-section he was quickly whisked away to the NICU to be evaluated. Jessica was only briefly able to see him as she needed to recover as well. It wasn't until almost 60 hours later that Jessica was finally able to hold her baby boy for the first time.

I took this video hoping to catch a moment, never did I anticipate seeing the exact moment that she fell completely in love with him. The bond between Mother and Son immediately solidified.

I hope that this video can show people that Love is the most important thing in anyone's life. Without it we will simply exist, when the goal is to live." <3
