Mom shocked as unborn baby turns and stares at camera in ‘creepy’ scan

A pregnant mum was shocked when a 20 week scan showed her baby looking directly at the camera. See SWNS story SWPLscan; Jo Greer, 34, went for the half-way scan to check that everything was going well with her pregnancy. But the fitness instructor was left stunned when the position of the foetus appeared to show it striking a pose with its eyes peering straight through the lens. Jo, who runs Elevate Dance and Fitness Studio, was so amused by the image that she shared it online - and has vowed to keep it for an 18th birthday card for her child in the future. She said: "It was quite creepy, it was a bit of a shock. Me and my partner just turned to each other and burst out laughing. "Apparently there's nothing wrong with it, but we were told it is quite rare that the baby looks at the camera." Jo, of Plymouth, Devon, and her husband, Clint Jones, 42, said are keeping the baby's gender a surprise. She added: "We'll keep the image and put it on their 18th birthday card as a bit of a giggle." Sharing the image on Facebook, Jo wrote: "So we’ve all seen the standard, cute sideways scan pictures, but this is ours. "Of course we got the usual scan pics, but then baby turned to face the camera which is apparently quite rare and highly amusing."

Baby scans are always an exciting time for expecting parents. The chance to see an image of your little one as it grows in the womb often brings home the reality of the sheer joy and promise.

And yet while most pregnancy scans are straight forward, some can contain surprises. In any case, that’s exactly what 34-year-old Jo Greer got when she went to the half-way scan to check everything was going according to plan.

Everything was fine with the baby, but Jo was left shocked when her baba appeared to be staring straight through the lens back at her.

The mom-to-be, who runs a dance and fitness studio in Plymouth, England, took to social media to share her image online. She explained how she wants to keep it for the baby’s 18th birthday.

Jo said: “It was quite creepy, it was a bit of a shock. Me and my partner just turned to each other and burst out laughing.”

“Apparently there’s nothing wrong with it, but we were told it is quite rare that the baby looks at the camera.”

Jo and her husband Clint Jones are keeping their baby’s gender a surprise, but we’re sure this future boy or girl will appreciate the hilarious memento.
