Pregnant Molly-Mae Hague shares sweet baby scan as she reveals 'disheartening' reason she can't feel unborn daughter move

Molly-Mae Hague has been keeping her followers updated after sharing the wonderful news she is pregnant last month. The former Love Island star and her beau Tommy Fury, who she met on the ITV2 dating show in 2019, revealed they are set to become parents for the first time to a daughter.

Taking to Instagram on Thursday evening (October 13), Molly-Mae shared a number of sweet clips of her baby scan as she waved hello to her "little girly". However, the influencer, 23, also candidly confessed to feeling "disheartened" by the lack of movement she's felt from her first child.

The mum-to-be uploaded a video of her latest scan, after revealing she was six months pregnant earlier this month, and gushed: "Hello little girls," before adding: "The little nose and mouth."

She then went on to share scan pictures captured during the special moment she got to check in on her unborn baby girl but revealed she has an anterior placenta.

Showing her followers what this is with an arrow pointing toward the scan, Molly-Mae told how the baby is "literally pushing into it," as she explained: "I have been getting quite disheartened at how little I've been able to feel her move... especially when I can feel her and Tommy can't when he touches my belly.

"So it's really reassuring to know it's because my placenta is literally a huge sponge between me and baby that's absorbing all her movement and preventing me from really feeling it."

She went on to say: "Think it'll be a little while yet until we see her little legs kicking through or Tommy feels her bu I'm keeping my fingers crossed." Afterward, Molly-Mae went on to tell her fans she isn't keeping the baby's due date a secret after a number of her followers wrote to her to say they can figure it out from other comments she's made.

Sharing another snap of her in the waiting room for her scan, she added: "It's really not a big taboo secret It's just not something I wanted to outright say myself because who knows when she'll actually arrive." Last week, Molly-Mae melted hearts earlier this week when she and boyfriend Tommy revealed they were expecting a baby girl.

It comes just a couple of weeks after the loved-up pair announced they were set to become parents for the first time. Mum-to-be Molly-Mae couldn't hide her delight and shock as she and Tommy discovered the sex of their impending arrival in an adorable video posted earlier this week. PLT creative director Molly-Mae could be seen standing alongside a balloon that had the words 'Boy or Girl?' written on it in gold writing.

Tommy, also 23, could be seen holding a pin before going over to join his girlfriend for the big reveal. Before popping the balloon, the parents-to-be shared a warm embrace as they prepared for the news, with Molly-Mae suggesting she was nervous, putting her hands out towards her man to show her shaking.

"OUR LITTLE…" Molly-Mae and Tommy captioned the video to their millions of followers, adding an angel baby emoji as Tommy popped the balloon to reveal an abundance of pink confetti. Molly-Mae put her hands over her mouth before folding over in complete shock as Tommy watched on in equal surprise.

The couple then shared another hug, surrounded by the bright confetti on the floor, as they took in their exciting news. The post was set to stunning track The Vow by Irish singer RuthAnn and Molly-Mae later shared how the track held a special place in her heart after it was used during 'Prom Night' during the last days of the ITV2 dating show three years ago as she entered the villa's garden to reunite with her love-struck beau.
