These days a surprising image circulates on the network. It was taken in an Arizona hospital on October 9, but it hasn't been until a few days ago when her parents posted it on the Internet. In the picture we see a baby's hand that grabs the doctor's finger I was practicing a caesarean section to the mother.
The photo, placed on the Facebook wall of the mother's business, allows you to see how the baby, still in full birth and therefore, from the womb, grabs a finger of the doctor who attended the operation. The little girl's name is Nevaeh, and it seems she didn't want to wait any longer to leave ...
The mother is a photographer, but this time, of course, it was not she who pressed the camera button. It was her husband and as we see on the Facebook wall where the photo appears, she does not give credit to the success of the image, which has become the first viral phenomenon of the year and is going around the world.
The father, Randy Atkins, points out that it was the doctor who told him of the gesture: "Look, he's grabbing my finger". "So I went as fast as possible and took the picture of the wonderful moment."
The truth, after having had a caesarean section, I can not imagine, with the transfer and the speed with which everything happened, that there was not a moment for that detail to occur, to be fixed in it, or to be photographed (more than nothing because I went unaccompanied).
The fact is that both the mother and the little girl, who is already three months old, are well and have already visited a television set to explain the photograph.
This snapshot reminds me of others that may sound like you. In those cases, the images corresponded to two fetuses of 21 and 24 weeks gestation who were undergoing a novel intrauterine intervention of spina bifida (hence the presence of professional photographers).
The operations were carried out in 1999, some months apart. Through the reduced space in the womb to practice the operation, both babies drew their arm and the images seemed to show the little hands taking a doctor's finger.
Although one of the doctors points out that he only gently introduced the arm into the uterus (and it is quite probable, since it is assumed that the baby was sedated for the intervention).
In the case of the most famous baby photo of the moment, a baby not sedated that is being born, seems clearer than indeed grabs the doctor's finger. A beautiful moment that shows the palmar grip with which babies are born.
