When Emily Foster from Kent, England, went in for her routine 20-week ultrasound, she expected the usual — tiny kicks, a steady heartbeat, and maybe a small wave from the baby girl she was eagerly waiting to welcome into her life.

But what she saw stunned both her and the doctors.

While performing the ultrasound, the sonographer looked at the screen in confusion, then smiled and said:
"Wait a minute… is that hair?"
One of the doctors came closer and joked:
"Looks like you’ve got a little rock star in there — she might skip the bald baby phase completely!"

Indeed, the ultrasound showed wispy strands of hair floating like seaweed underwater.

About two months later, baby Ivy was born — with hair as thick and long as that of a two-year-old child. Doctors and nurses said they had never seen anything like it.

They explained that it’s not uncommon for babies to be born with hair, as it starts growing in the womb around 30 weeks.
What made Ivy’s case remarkable was that her hair was already clearly visible on the scan — and unusually long for a newborn.

When Emily’s story spread online, many people reacted to the ultrasound images showing Ivy’s hair. Some parents shared similar experiences:

"My baby was born with such long hair that I had to trim it right after we got home so it wouldn’t cover his eyes."
"My baby girl was born with bangs and left the hospital already rocking bows in her hair!"

Every child is a little miracle in their own right.
Baby Ivy’s unique appearance is just a reminder that nature’s little wonders come in all shapes and forms.
