Exhausted New Mom Captures Heart-Melting Moment With Loyal Dog

August 28, 2024

A new mom named Brook shared a precious video that has touched the hearts of many. Like most new parents, Brook has been navigating the exhausting routine of middle-of-the-night feedings for her infant daughter.

But what makes her journey a little more special is the constant, silent support she receives from an unexpected companion—her dog.

In the video, Brook’s devoted dog is seen by her side during those sleepless nights, quietly checking on both her and the baby.

"Through the cluster feeding nights and the early morning wake-ups, she’s been there too, just awake and silently waiting by my side," Brook shared.

Dogs are sent directly from Heaven🥰🥰

Girl dogs and babies. It’s just something about them, like they want to be your child’s caretaker too

It’s the checking on you before baby for me 🥰

“You doing okay mum?”

The way you looked kinda relieved to see her 🥲

"It smells like you, but also not like you"

My dog sat up with us the whole first night we brought our daughter home from the NICU. We watched him catch himself falling asleep a few times 😭 He wouldn’t let himself sleep 😭
