Little Baby Adorably Stretches After Being Unswaddled
I can barely take the cuteness. <3

This baby is all of us.

In the morning, at work, during lunch, and in whatever random situation you find yourself in. The only difference being that this little guy looks unbelievably cute stretching out.

He is wrapped like a burrito but the moment he is unswaddled, he looks up with those angelic eyes then slowly rises his left arm first, then the right, and stretches those short arms like there’s no tomorrow.

It’s a regular gig too.

The little human even closes his eyes as he raises his arms over his head. Well not exactly over… It’s like his entire arm only reaches up to his forehead but you have to admit, this is super cute!

For us adults, stretching like that releases lots of pops and cracking sounds from different parts of the body. That means we work too much and need an extra day to ourselves with a glass of wine and not a care in the world. Good luck with that.

I love how babies arms only reach the top of their heads. So flippin cute. It really demonstrates how the head is like 1/3 of the body size at that age.”

It may look like a normal reflex action from a baby. But look closely at his face though. And look how he also stretches his neck as he closes his eyes. If that’s not us adults throughout the day…

This viewer gets it,

“Them stretches looked so good. That first stretch after you wake up is truly a beautiful part of life lol”

To think this baby’s got no life problems yet.

All parents need to watch out for are noises when a baby stretches. If the little one cries, or farts, or any of the like, then a little TLC is in order. But this little dude is simply saying hello to the world when he’s unwrapped!

It’s a real good way of warming up those joints and muscles too! Blood flows faster and the nerves are woken up when given a good stretch. Why do you think athletes stretch before they go on and play? Why do we adults stretch for a bit before getting up and going on with the day?

This little guy even gets a belly rub once he’s free and stretching!

It gets everything in the body circulating. Gives you a chance to know if all your parts are working right. No different from a car when first started up and allowed to warm up by idling a bit. Plus it helps alleviate stress.

For us adults that is.

Sleepy baby here looks like he’s saying “thank you” with those eyes of his. Like he was just set free. Does this baby burrito come with extra sauce of loving? He looks like he could use some! This is a lesson for all. Never ever underestimate the power of a good, deep stretch.
