For any soon-to-be-parent, one moment that is often named as an important milestone is getting a first glimpse at your baby even before it's born.

 

But for many blind and partially sighted parents baby scans are not exactly accessible, but what if they could be? 

 

Nathan Edge, will become a dad, for the first time, this year and he recently received a gift that allowed him to see his baby boy for the first time.

RNIB Connect Radio's Paulina Kuchorew spoke with Nathan about the amazing gift and what a difference a simple embroidery could make to other blind and partially sighted parents. 

You can follow Nathan and his family on YouTube at 'Blind Dad and Family' or on twitter: @NathanEdge94
