Stunning ultrasound image reveals unexpected surprise for first-time mother

'Ghost' appears alongside baby

Twenty-two-year-old mother-to-be experienced the ultimate "wow" moment when she found an image of her late great-grandmother in her 18-week ultrasound.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Unfortunately for mother Sacha Rigby, getting pregnant was not an easy task. She and her husband, Danny, had been trying to conceive for quite some time before they sought out other options, including fertility counseling.

"I was told I couldn't have children and just as I was preparing to go to the fertility clinic, I found out I was pregnant - a miracle baby," expressed Sacha.

At 18 weeks pregnant, Sacha was rushed to the hospital with early contractions. Although her whole family was shaken up over the traumatic experience, she and baby were given the "all clear" and allowed to go home.

The next day, Sacha underwent an ultrasound to check on the baby.

Looking at the ultrasound, Sacha immediately noticed the baby was not alone. The familiar face of her great-grandmother, May Worthington, appeared directly to the left of the baby.

May passed away in March 2015 after suffering from a short illness, according to the Daily Mail.

"I cannot express how much this means to me. I thought I couldn't have children and now I have one and have seen them together," stated Sacha. "Seeing my great-grandmother there is the nicest feeling. I'm so glad this image has been captured. It's like they are face-to-face, giving each other a hug."

According to Sacha, her grandmother, who ordinarily doesn't believe in "anything like this," was brought to tears after seeing the shocking ultrasound image.

"She was the most amazing woman you could ever meet. Everything she did was for the family," explained Sacha about May. "It's more comforting than anything knowing that my gran is looking after my girl."
