Can Babies Really Crawl at Three Days Old?

When Nyilah Daise Tzabari arrived three weeks past her due date, her parents knew she was ready to make up for lost time. But no one expected the surprise she had in store: just three days old, and she was already lifting her head and crawling across her hospital cot!

For first-time parents Samantha Mitchell and Ofer Tzabari, this was nothing short of astonishing. As they watched their baby girl show off extraordinary strength, they couldn’t believe their eyes. “I’ve never had a newborn like this,” Samantha said, stunned by Nyilah’s early milestones.

A Moment Captured for the Ages

In the viral TikTok video that has now accumulated over 57.5 million views, little Nyilah is seen using her tiny arms to push herself up and crawl—something most babies do much later. You can hear Samantha’s mom gasping in disbelief, and Samantha herself, equally shocked, exclaims, “How does she even move like that?”

Samantha recorded the moment to share with family, but she never expected the video to go viral. “If I didn’t film it, no one would have believed me, not even Ofer!” she said, laughing.

A Baby Who Refuses to Wait

Born on February 27, 2023, Nyilah weighed 7 lbs 6 oz and was already making her mark. While most babies start crawling at 6 to 12 months, Nyilah’s development has been far faster. By 18 days old, she was already rolling over. By one month, she was smiling at her mom, and at two months, she was rolling back to her belly.

At three months, Nyilah showed off her playful side, even giving her mom a playful punch during a video! Her parents couldn’t believe how quickly she was growing, and they were loving every second of it.

She’s Already Standing—And Talking Too!

Nyilah’s growth doesn’t stop there. At seven weeks, she was babbling and trying to mimic words like “I love you.” And as if that wasn’t enough, she’s already standing with support—walking might be just around the corner!

Samantha couldn’t be prouder. “She puts so much weight on her legs, and she refuses to buckle her knees,” she said. Nyilah doesn’t even need head or neck support anymore. She’s one strong, happy, and incredibly alert baby who knows how to light up a room.

A Baby Who’s Always Ready to Laugh

Nyilah isn’t just strong—she’s also full of joy. Samantha says, “She smiles and laughs all the time. The second you smile at her, she lights up and smiles right back.” It’s clear this little one has a sunny disposition that matches her incredible abilities.

A Future Full of Surprises

For Samantha and Ofer, every day with Nyilah is an adventure. “I thought this was normal for newborns,” Samantha said. “Turns out, Nyilah is far from typical!” As Nyilah continues to hit milestones early, her family can’t wait to see what other surprises she has in store.
