One of the top commenters wrote: 'She is crazy beautiful only some days old #love.'

Another one chimed in: 'Watch out! My kids all peed on me at least once when doing that. 

'Ahh, the fun of parenthood!'

About 240,000 of the likes came in under an hour.

The posting comes days after the Facebook CEO offered words of support for Muslims who fear retaliation for the recent violent attacks by Islamic extremists in Paris and San Bernardino.

In the wake of those attacks, Zuckerberg wrote on his personal page Wednesday that he wants to assure Muslims they are welcome on Facebook and that 'we will fight to protect your rights and create a peaceful and safe environment for you'.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has proposed barring all Muslims from entering the United States. 

Other political leaders have condemned Trump's proposal as discriminatory.

Zuckerberg did not refer specifically to any proposal, but the co-founder of the world's biggest social network said, 'As a Jew, my parents taught me that we must stand up against attacks on all communities.'
