Chrissy Teigen Shares a Heartbreakingly Honest Post About Her Body After Pregnancy Loss

23/12/2020 - 05:31 PM

Chrissy Teigen continues to be open about life after pregnancy loss [1]. "This is me and my body, just yesterday," she captioned a photo of herself standing in front of the mirror [2] that she shared to Instagram on Wednesday. "Even though I'm no longer pregnant, every glance in the mirror reminds me of what could have been. And I have no idea why i still have this bump, honestly. It's frustrating. But I'm proud of where this entire journey took my body and mind in other ways."

Chrissy and John Legend [3] lost their baby Jack at 20 weeks [4] in September. The couple have spoken publicly about the experience, with Chrissy writing an essay for Medium about her grief and decision to take photos during those difficult days at the hospital [5]. Chrissy and John have also since launched a charity initiative in Jack's honour [6], which will benefit families with sick and injured children.

Chrissy ended her latest post with a heartbreaking admission, before acknowledging how lucky she is to have children Luna and Miles [8]. "I love being pregnant, so so much, and I'm sad I never will be again," she said. "But I am lucky to have two amazing little ones who are transforming into big little people more and more every single day."
