Myka Giles shared a hilarious video on TikTok of a pregnant patient's ultrasound showing what happened when she laughed.

The go-to description of pregnancy is usually "beautiful" with an occasional "miracle" thrown in.

But "mind-blowing" and occasionally "hilarious" deserve their flowers, too.


Growing and developing a whole other human who will be self-sustaining in the future is a wild biological concept, and as demonstrated by TikToker Myka Giles, the videographer and ultrasound tech behind the @peekatbaby4d account, it can be funny at times as well.

Giles frequently shares videos on the account of different baby positions during ultrasounds and what to expect from 4D ultrasounds—and, alongside one mom, she was able to share what it looks like in the womb when a pregnant mother laughs.

Obviously, when we laugh, we engage our stomach muscles—but no one would have expected how much that could impact the growing baby.

When the anonymous mom started giggling, the familiar peanut-shaped space around the baby began to warp, and the more she laughed, the more the space shrank and jostled the baby around.

Mid-video, the space went back to normal while the mom held her breath and tried to compose herself. But when she experienced another bout of laughter, the uterus bounced around so much that the videographer even lost sight of the baby!

Some fellow TikTokers were tickled by the video and imagined what the baby was thinking.

As mind-blowing and awe-inspiring as pregnancy might be, videos like this are great reminders of the sweeter and funnier moments that can be so easily overlooked.

This video will undoubtedly make an adorable memory for the mom-to-be to keep for herself but also to share with her child when they're a little older.

Knowing that this isn't actually harmful for the baby, either, and simply looks like a silly joy ride makes the display that much funnier and even more memorable.
