It takes a while before babies take their first steps so seeing them do it before time is quite a surprising sight for the parents. Recently, a newborn baby in a viral video is leaving people surprised after the toddler walked on a bed immediately after birth.

According to a media report, the video posted by a Facebook user Arlete Arantes shows a newborn baby walking with the support of a nurse on the hospital bed. While it is unlikely that babies walk within the first few months, it is impressive to see it happen almost immediately after birth and that is leaving people amazed. The video has got over 70 million views and one million shares since it was posted.

Interestingly, the baby walking is a natural action called the ‘stepping reflex’ where the baby attempts to take a few steps once place on a hard surface. The baby is in a healthy condition and is certainly a few steps ahead of most people when they’re born.
