From angel wings to special likenesses, we’ve seen some pretty incredible ‘messages’ sent from the womb, but the following is without doubt one of the most astonishing we have ever come across.

 

A US couple are over the moon after receiving a very special ‘salute’ from their unborn child!

 

Robert Cooper is a former marine, and he was only too excited to accompany partner Mehgan Merriott to her recent 12-week ultrasound.

 

 

While the baby was initially sleeping, he or she wasn’t about to let Mum and Dad down at their appointment – eventually waking up to raise its hand to its brow and give a ‘military salute’!

 

Admitting that the scene almost reduced her to tears, excited mum-to-be Mehgan told ABC News: “They tried several times to get him/her to wake up to take the picture that they needed to take. The baby didn’t want to wake up, then threw its hand in the air and then threw it back down!"

 

 

Mehgan, who is already mum to three-year-old son Cambden, is set to announce her baby’s gender at the end of the month.

 

It just goes to show that the bond between a baby and its parents runs deeper than we could ever imagine.
