Expectant parents were left astounded after their unborn baby appeared to give them a high five from the womb. Â
Libby and Mathew Vlasic, from New York, were overjoyed to learn that their six-year-old son Miles was to become a big brother.
And at just nine weeks pregnant the happy couple found out they were expecting a baby girl.
But it was at their 20-week scan that the pair got their biggest surprise yet - when they saw their baby daughter's hand reaching up to give them a high five, from the womb.
Libby said: 'It took us quite a few years of trying for baby number two and it was such a struggle I'll be honest.
'I'd pretty much given up hope of having a second baby, but life works in mysterious ways and I miraculously found myself pregnant again.
'On the day of the scan, I wasn't physically feeling the best, so it took me a little while to realize what had happened
'However, the scan technician was very excited about it at the time and now I realise how special it was.'
After the scan the couple shared a picture of the amazing moment on social media and it has since gone viral.
