Deaf Baby Hears Mom Say “I Love You” For The First Time, Makes The Internet Cry

This video below has recently been making rounds on social media. In fact, I think I’ve seen several of my friends share this on Facebook and so when I finally clicked it, I immediately realized why it’s been getting a lot of online love – it’s extremely heartwarming and tear-inducing!

The short viral footage captures the touching reaction of Charly, a beautiful deaf baby girl, when she heard her mother say “I love you” for the first time in her life. She may be too young to speak a word but her facial expression says everything and has made the whole internet cry.

Baby Charly was born with hearing problems.

Her parents initially felt suspicious when they noticed she wasn’t responding to certain voices and noises. So they immediately took her to a doctor for a hearing test and the results confirmed their fears – the baby is indeed hearing impaired and she needed to use hearing aid.

She got really emotional upon hearing her mother’s voice.

After acquiring the device, the parents fitted and tested it and recorded everything on film. They, however, weren’t prepared for what followed shortly. Their baby’s mixed emotions really showed in her countenance and it’s really heartwarming. Hearing her mother’s voice must have been a really overwhelming experience for her!

Frankly, it’s hard not to cry with this baby.

Although a Faithtap article tells us that “it will take time for Charly to learn how to speak, talk, and develop her listening skills,” it is still comforting to know that she is now “on the right track” after having her own hearing aid.

We are definitely happy for her and her family. It is sweet little moments like this that really make us appreciate the wonders of modern technology.
