Influencer Abby Howard opened up about her anatomy scan while expecting her rainbow baby with husband Matt Howard.
Abby, 27, took to TikTok on Thursday, April 9, to take her followers along to an anatomy scan appointment. “To be honest, these appointments bring even more fear than they did before loss,” Abby said, referring to her pregnancy loss, which she first opened up about in September 2025.
“I’m 18 and a half weeks,” Abby said while doing her makeup, “which is actually earlier than the other three times I’ve done this scan. We’ve just overall been treating this pregnancy differently, given the circumstances.”
Abby noted that other moms who went through a similar loss “know there’s a clear distinction between your pregnancies pre-loss and your pregnancies post-loss.” After getting dressed, Abby clarified that she’s still “so excited” to be expecting again, but has “a lot more fear.”

Following her scan, Abby and Matt, also 27, said that they got “good news” and “slightly not good news.”
“The good news is great enough that we do not care! The baby looks great,” Abby said.
Matt continued, “The only slight downside is that for the next month until our next appointment, there’s no mommy-daddy time or working out for Abby.”
@matt_and_abby_howard kinda just wanted to hear a “everything looks perfect!” today, but we can work with this!!
Abby explained that her doctors recommended “a form of pelvic rest” while they keep “a close eye on the placenta.”
Abby concluded her post by saying, “Overall, today was a great day.”
Matt and Abby, who already share sons Griffin, 3, and August, 2, got candid about suffering a pregnancy loss in September 2025 via Instagram. At the time, they shared a pic of them holding hands while Abby lay in a hospital bed.
“It is with very heavy hearts that we share about the loss of our baby girl born far too soon,” Abby wrote at the time. “At a routine pregnancy appointment, our doctor could not find a heartbeat. Shortly after they sent us in for an ultrasound where the technician said words we will never forget, ‘I am so sorry I do not have good news.’”

She added, “For now we will grieve and continue to think of ways to honor her life offline. Thoughts and prayers are more than welcome. Thank you everyone for celebrating this precious life with us for the past 17 weeks.❤️.”
Last month, the couple announced that Abby is pregnant via Instagram. “Baby #4 🌈,” they captioned a post of Abby’s sonogram. “Grateful beyond measure.”
