A pregnant mum was shocked when a 20 week scan showed her baby looking directly at the camera.
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."
