Dad’s Amazon-style baby review hilariously captures the truths of baby’s first five weeks

Every parent jokes that babies don’t come with an instruction manual. But in one viral TikTok, new dad Jordan (@CamOnAll) has taken it a step further—reviewing his 5-and-a-half-week-old daughter Louise as if she were a product shipped straight from Amazon.

With the calm seriousness of a man evaluating a toaster, Jordan lists her specs: 21 inches. 6 lbs, 14 oz. Her accessories? “Lip tie, tongue tie, and gassy mode permanently activated.” His final verdict: four-and-a-half stars.

Parents can’t stop laughing—because it’s too real

The comments section has become an unofficial parents’ club:

• “Shipping took nine months. Wish there was Prime.”
• “No volume control. Runs mostly at night.”
• “Cute, but came with blowouts and random leaks.”

Sound familiar? Of course it does. Because as funny as it is, this video is basically one giant inside joke for anyone who’s ever survived the newborn stage.

Why the joke hits home

It’s hilarious, yes—but it also works on a deeper level. Psychologists note that humor can reduce stress, strengthen relationships, and help us reframe tough moments. According to the American Psychological Association, laughter is one of the most effective tools for emotional resilience during challenging transitions (yes, even the kind involving diaper blowouts at 2 a.m.).

So when Jordan deadpans about his baby’s “faulty features,” he’s doing more than cracking a joke—he’s modeling a coping strategy parents have relied on for generations: laugh so you don’t cry.

Parenting research meets parenting reality

Studies show that parents who use humor during stressful caregiving moments report feeling less overwhelmed and more connected to their partners. In other words, turning your baby’s “upgraded spit-up function” into a mock Amazon review isn’t just funny—it’s neuroscience-approved self-care.

How to bring the laughs into your own parenting

• Write your own “product review.” Rate your baby’s quirks like Jordan did. (May we suggest: “Compact design, but requires 24/7 charging.”)
• Laugh out loud—even if it feels silly. Research shows that forced laughter can trigger the same stress-reducing benefits as the real thing.
• Share it. Whether it’s in a mom group text or on TikTok, swapping stories helps parents feel less isolated in even the most chaotic moments. And feeling less alone = more joy in parenthood.

The real rating? Five stars, always

Sure, Jordan may have docked his daughter half a star for excessive gas. But the truth is, these “flawed features” are what make parenting both exhausting and endlessly funny.

Because if parenthood were really an Amazon purchase, we’d all still be clicking “Subscribe & Save.”
