Newborn baby lifts his head (Miracle Baby)

in #baby7 years ago (edited)


This is our baby. His name is "Bitcoin". He's my bitcoin baby.

On the day our baby was born he lifted his head by himself. This is a medical miracle. We told the doctors what we saw, and they said, "It's not possible. He won't do that until he's one month old." I showed them a photo . the same one that you see here. They looked at it and acted suitably impressed, but I could see they were dubious that it wasn't quite what it seemed. They seemed to think it was some kind of lucky or trick photo.

I wished I could have shown them a video of him doing it.

One thing I did not know about at the time was the Apple iPhone "Live Photo" feature. "Live Photo" is a feature of the latest iPhone which not only takes a photo, but also takes a short video of about 3 seconds. You can see the video by holding the photo with your finger. I didn't know this at the time, and only discovered it months later. Since I can no longer share this video with the doctors, I am sharing it with my steemian friends.

Click the picture above to watch the 3 second video in D.Tube.

I have since googled about babies lifting their heads on the day of their birth. So far I didn't find anything much.
It seems babies normally start to do this at one moth old, although were a small number of claims that it happened after 2 weeks or even one week.

Has anyone seen this happen to another baby??

Here is another picture on the day he was born. This is the first time I looked at him. He was just 10 minutes old.

He sat up on his own, and looked at the world around him when he was exactly 5 months old. Here he is doing it:

At six moths he was already standing with support. Here he is at 6 months and 9 days old.

At 11 months and 4 days old he could stand without holding on to any furniture. Here is a picture of him as he stood for the first time un-supported.

Within a few days he was walking. Here is a picture of his first steps the next day at 11 months and 5 days old.

If I had known he was going to be so strong, I would have never named him "Bitcoin Baby". I would have called him "Blockchain Baby".

To finish this blog off, here are a few more of our little Bitcoin getting ready for bed.

Oh my Blockchain Baby....

When I look upon you my heart gets filled with joy and ecstasy and suddenly I feel the richest and happiest person in this world.

Your cute face makes my day and your smile is my breath...

You are the accomplishment of my motherhood...

It is difficult to define how much I love you and you are very very special to my world and your every moment is like a celebration of my life...

The day you born, you set a a different role to my personality and that was "motherhood" and you are the certificate of me being a mother.

I got a rebirth within me the day you born.....

My love for you is eternal......from @swissclive....

Wow, that is just so beautiful. Thank you so much for these wonderful words.

Bitcoin baby is very lucky, he was born in a golden cradle as we say here, the important thing is that he is in good health and is a good man, an example of his father, and I also hope that his mother, I wish him many blessings to He, the children bring a lot of happiness to our lives, enjoy everything they can. Greetings, friend, God continues to bless you!

I loved this

Honestly, this nothing but a miracle. I know a little about medicine and body anatomy and I use to believe it is not possible for a newborn baby to raise his or her head till like after 1 month because the head and the neck muscles and even the spinal cord will not be strong enough to do this.
For me, I've never seen a baby raise his or her head before at birth. I will take it as a miracle and please, watch over the baby very well, he is a special being.

As for the live photo feature on iPhone, many people that uses iPhone X, 8 and 8 Plus, 7 and 7 Plus, the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, and even the iPhone SE still don't know that the feature is default. Once you snap a picture, your iPhone captures the audio and video of 1.5 seconds before and 1.5 seconds after you tap the white shutter button to snap a photo. It's a really cool feature for iPhone.

Thank God for iPhone, many people including me will still not believe that happened by mere seeing pictures.

Thanks for this your post once again. I always enjoy your post anytime I read them because I always learn new thing. Today I saw what I always think it's impossible.
Thanks once again.

  • The baby is so cute. Congratulations and greet baby Bitcoin for me o

The maternity ward doctors did not believe me when I told them. Even the photo did not convince them. I wish I had known about live photo then. I would have been able to show the short video.

It is indeed frustrating when people do not believe you when you tell them a thing that really happened... Anyway, you know the truth and you should enjoy every minute next to your child, he is a beautiful kid. Hope he will make you a proud father!

Thank you @mejustandrew. You have such a kind heart!

As I said, it a very difficult thing to believe especially for people in medical line. Thanks for showing us this video.
Looking forward to your next post to learn a new thing

Wow... Sounds impressive for a baby to do that on a first day. So, you gave him "bitcoin" indeed, I can only imagine his luck rolling in the money into the family. You baby is beautiful and even if the doctor seem not to believe, I don't think a father will lie about such when it's no like there is an award they were going to give. Well, amazing sharing this right now. For some of us who are yet to thread your path in the line of giving birth,i believe that is something to look out for when we finally do give birth. Thanks for sharing your amazing posts always.

I can only imagine his luck rolling in the money into the family.

It's really interesting.

Thanks for sharing your amazing posts always.

I join thanks.

This baby is a genius do you Know? You may not. But all the phenomenal things he does is half the display of the inner stuff he's gifted with.

He looks so handsome.
My wish for him is that he may grow in wisdom and with all blessings of both spiritual and material things.

Hello @Swissclive
I've heard some fascinating stories about new born babies. From the ones trying to walk after birth to the ones trying to talk after birth.
Bitcoin's story proves that we'll keep experiencing these fascinating events.
I tried to do a search after reading your post... Am i came across few interesting comments

My newborn did it from day one. Even when I'm burping him he lifts his head and looks at me. I saw another post on here with some people talking about that. Not sure if it's normal either but I guess it's somewhat common! Maybe we're just lucky and have strong necked babies :)

My son did that from birth. First time I held him he lifted and turned his head to look at me. Every baby is different they move at their own pace

Nothing to worry about. Both of my kids did this the minute they came out. It's a good thing to have gold head control. Nothing better than a strong and healthy baby.


Bitcoin is cute and quite strong for his age... At the rate he might even be lifting the refrigerator few years time 😁 (joking).
You have a lovely family ... Although i've always thought you were Lady.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for these links. It sounds like Bitcoin Baby is not the only one. However I bet he’s the only one caught on camera!

I'm happy to learn and contribute @swissclive :))
"However I bet he’s the only one caught on camera!" ...It seems so!!! Am sure you already backed up the clip in your icloud. 😁
Thanks again!!!

The first super baby I knew was from a story (Azuka and the magic egg) in the book, tales by moonlight. But I guess baby bitcoin is another super baby.

I got curious when I saw him lift his head in the video so I searched google to see if there are other amazing kids like him. I found another amazed mother here who narrated how she saw her son do the same.

I still can't find a real scientific explanation. but like you said, he's a miracle baby and all I could say is that he's really strong doing what most other babies his age won't be able to do.

Just look at his picture at 10 minutes, he was so eager to welcome the world. I'm sure he has a lot to offer.

Here is a screenshot of another article I found trying to explain the stages of development of a newborn baby you can read more from here

I had a neighbour whose daughter could walk without support at 8 months. These are just wonderful things we rarely see everyday.

And by the way he's a cute little boy. It doesn't matter whether you name him bitcoin or blockchain, he's a strong baby.

Thanks for that very useful link. According to the stories, he is not the first newborn to lift his head. However, it looks like he is the first one who was filmed doing it.

I'm glad you found the link useful.

How I wished my own upvote on your comment could be massive too. Thanks!

It is very gratifying to know that one is the father of a healthy and strong child. My daughter Jerlin learned to walk at 9 months, now she is 8 years old and seems to have an inexhaustible source of energy, the baby bitcoin case is rare. I have not seen a child one day raise his head, fortunately the recorded video remains for the story.

Walking at 9 months!!!!! That is so young, especially for a girl.

I would also say that it is something unusual, now thinking a little things, at that time the floor of the house was dirt, we were in full construction of the house, I imagine that naturally the direct contact with the earth strengthened it more.
I do not know, I'll have to study about Jerlin's case! she has always proven to be an outstanding girl.

Congratulations @swissclive, I think it's miracle!
I have 2 older children and 7 younger, so I watched the first days and weeks of many babies, but I never saw such a phenomenon: a newborn baby lifts his head so early.
Usually it happens not earlier than after 1 month.
Your son is really special! And he has good health and strength.
His eyes are such clever on the photo. He is so cute! And he is already running in his one year!
I wonder what his first words will be!
And I'm sure that he also will be intelligent and creative as his father and he'll make you a proud father!
I wish he'll bring a lot of happiness to your life and I wish him, and you, and your wife many blessings!
I resteemed this your post to show your extraordinary cute child to all my children and friends!

Thank you @ir3k. I also wonder what his first words will be. I’m sure he is saying “daddy” already, even if it is associated with me.

Amazing baby! He will be an athlete when he grows older!! Can't wait to see what "bitcoin" baby is up to in 10 years time :)

Wow! Blockchain baby indeed! We may borrow that for our next one! I love it!

This is such a nice collection of his first 12 months! How did you manage to capture all of those key firsts? We seemed to always be caught off guard and would barely see it as the moment was over. No chance to grab the phone or camera!

This post is a nice #healthy-home post! Hopefully they can share the 'seal of approval'.

You definitely have a new follower!
Thx

It is a great #healthy-home post! Thanks for the heads up!

And it is more special than you realize! Our son also did this... Maybe it was on the second or third day, but very early! That is too cool!

This is a post it note reminder to myself to come back and see how blockchain baby is doing.
:-D
