Danielle Armstrong shares first look at unborn daughter 'hiding from mumma'

Pregnant Danielle Armstrong has shared an unbelievable first look of her unborn baby daughter in a 3D scan.

The mum-to-be delighted fans with the ultrasound scan image, sharing it to her 1.2million followers on Instagram .

The baby's face can be seen very clearly, her tiny nose and lips forming as Danielle prepares to give birth in eight weeks.

She also shared a video of herself and her fiancé Tom Edney, who is the baby's father, watching the ultrasound scan.

The video shows Danielle sitting in a car, and she tells viewers: So Tom's had to go to the shops and get me some chocolate, Lucozade and some fizzy sweets because once again our little girl is hiding from the camera."

"She must be camera shy. I see a little bit of her eye and her nose, but yeah so...

"Her legs, her arms, everything was like this," she said, covering her face with her arms to demonstrate.

"She was hiding, she was hiding from her mumma."

She also revealed she exercised with star jumps and jogging to try to get her baby to move positions, but when she went back into the clinic she still would not budge.

Tom and Danielle then went for a quick walk around Brentwood, and when they returned they were delighted to find the baby had moved and her face was visible.

Danielle captioned the video: For all us mums to be out there these are defos the appointments you look forward to the most I think seeing our little bundle of joy physically  [sic]

"But our little princess had other ideas..from me eating more calories and naughty things to get her moving to me doing star jumps & then a few loops in the freezing cold streets of Brentwood for our princess to still be a bit camera shy..which makes me think she may take after her Daddy hehe! 

"But it was so lovely to see her little features she looks like a cute little cub."

Danielle and Tom got together after being friends for 22 years before realising their romantic potential.

The former TOWIE star has admitted that she is in therapy after she opened up about battling prenatal depression.

Her first trimester was marred by severe morning sickness and she would often find herself sat on the sofa and crying for hours.

The couple have opened up on Danielle's YouTube channel (Youtube)

She told  Closer  magazine: "People don’t often speak about the downsides of pregnancy but hundreds of women messaged me saying they're pleased I spoke out – it’s called prenatal depression and it’s really common."

She continued: "The second trimester has been so much better.

"I've been going to therapy for a year now, because my anxiety was so bad and I'd lost one of my closest friends [Sammy Brandon, who died from breast cancer in June last year, aged 29].

"When Tom and I started dating, I told him and he's been really supportive. Now my anxiety has massively eased and I'm in a good place – but that doesn't mean I should stop going to therapy."
