'He was so calm when I handed him back,' and viewers ask for a Swaddelini for adults
Many commenters on the brand's newest short point out that the baby was quiet from the very first second, and one of the most liked asks for a version in a grown-up size.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 295,712 views a day, 26 times a normal first day on this channel (11,205).
He was so calm when I handed him back #babyswaddle #newbornsleep
"He was so calm when I handed him back" is the caption on Swaddelini's newest short. Swaddelini is the company channel for a stretchy swaddle, and lately its feed has been filled with babies being wrapped, mostly at a booth that the tags place at a Toronto baby show. This clip went up on Monday and passed about 200,000 views within twelve hours. A new Swaddelini short usually ends its whole first day near 11,000.
The comments came in about ten times faster than on a usual first day, and they have a running theme. Viewers keep noting, with some amusement, that there was no crying to fix: by their account the baby was silent before the wrap went on and stayed silent after. One of the most liked comments skips the baby entirely and asks for a grown-up version, and it has drawn more replies than anything else on the page. A few people say they would hate having their arms held in. Others simply ask what these videos are for.
The handoff clip had company on the same day. A second short from the same day, "Another baby swaddled and sleeping," also started well above the channel's usual pace. "Another baby who loves the Swaddelini," posted on Saturday from the baby show, picked up speed again. The booth even has a running gag: two recent titles promise that only a doll got yeeted. The channel added around 5,000 subscribers over the week and now stands near 202,000.
