    I know there are a lot of women who want to stigmatize miscarriages and see this as healthy for that movement. I feel the general public does not know how common miscarriage and stillbirth is.

    I can't see that. It is very common, so a lot of people have been through it, so a lot of people are aware of it. Typically you don't even want to announce a pregnancy until the third trimester because so much can go wrong. If your doc doesn't tell you that from the get go you've got the wrong doc.

    Chrissy is a very open person when it comes to her personal life, if only because she tries to normalize these things instead of stigmatizing.

    As someone who went through this I agree, though. Sharing publicly is the last thing I wanted to do, especially this soon. But - if she depends on her fans for support and they've been following her pregnancy announcing this can be a very powerful thing to do if the inevitable support comes flooding in.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    While I don’t know if I could post it, I am proud that she did. She has always been about showing the world what her life is really like, and her speaking out can give women comfort.

    With that being said, I’ve never had a miscarriage ( that I know of for the semantic police), so I am on the outside looking in.

    Agree with the general sentiment here, I found the picture to be a bit distasteful, probably triggering for some and I can't really imagine wanting someone to both take a pic of me like that and then filter it and all that, then post it on twitter, I don't know kind of weird vibe there. Doesn't really affect me too much at the end of the day though, so who am I to really judge too much on how someone chooses to grieve. Terrible she is having to go through that.

    Not the takeaway you should be having, but ok.

    [edit] In some respects this response is exactly why it's awesome she was willing to put this out there. So taboo that a woman bringing her experience it up is worth responding in this manner.

    Pretty sure he didn't do it because you brought up a taboo subject.

    He responded as if I was bragging as if that’s the only reason to mention it. Yet I wasn’t the only one admitting not being able to relate.

    i wouldn't look for too much in that one. i like the fertility noted bit and have used it before on other posters here. i'm generally irreverent and cryptic in my posts, just let them go usually. my apologies if you felt i was outing a humble brag

    now i feel obligated to be less flippant about involuntary and voluntary miscarriages, stillbirth, and otherwise terminated gestation. it's real trauma and i imagine we'll always recall any we experience in this life. i doubt it'd ever be a social media share for me but it doesn't move the needle for me that others would share their loss

    as for proper taboo work, we could probably do better than social media posts

    I appreciate this response ty. I know women who have had multiple miscarriages and some who can’t give birth at all, so yeah I guess I really don’t like the idea of implying I think I am better than them. Sorry if I am over sensitive about it. But I know there’s a few bg posters who have gone through this, so it might be nice to avoid it.
