A heartwarming and charming video featuring a group of heavily pregnant women, having fun at the hospital for the last time before holding their newborns, left smiles online.

The clip was shared on TikTok by @soniquezoe93, capturing the hearts and laughter of countless social media users.

The clip features four heavily pregnant women, unfazed by their looming deliveries, joyfully showing off their dance moves in a row in front of the camera. The pregnant mothers were visibly enjoying themselves, laughing and swaying as if they were anywhere but a labour ward, moments away from welcoming their babies. Their expressive display of happiness and companionship before such a monumental event created a delightful phenomenon for online audiences.

Others, however, asked them to be cautious and not fall while dancing

The clip gained massive views, likes, and comments from social media users who said it made them smile and laugh. Many joked lightheartedly, wishing they could have also seen a clip of the women in pain once contractions began.

Some found the clip cute, expressing excitement about their prospects of meeting new friends in the labour ward and sharing similar pre-delivery moments. Others, however, offered words of caution, advising the expectant mothers to be careful not to slip or fall during their dancing, given that they were carrying precious cargo.
