Chrissy Teigen Suffers A Miscarriage, People Support Her And Say She Helped Other Mothers Feel Less Alone

I lost 4 babies to miscarriage. I felt lost and had no one to talk to as all our friends and family were all starting families or had small children, they didn't want to hear about my pain when they were rejoicing in their joy. I am so sorry for Chrissy and give her respect for having the courage to share her pain instead of hiding it like I did. I am so truly sorry for the loss of their child its a pain that no one should have to live through.

Chrissy Teigen Suffers A Miscarriage, People Support Her And Say She Helped Other Mothers Feel Less Alone

A good friend of mine suffered a horrific miscarriage, and you would not believe the horrible things people said. Mostly, I think because people do not know what to say, because we never talk about it. Women don't talk about their pain when they miscarry--how horrible, horrible it is, and we should. I'm glad she's told the world about this--people will see the pain and perhaps saying the terrible things my friend had to listen to, the inability to empathize, and their snap-judgment blaming of the mother.

Foxxy, having a number of friends go through such losses, I can attest to the fact that you are 100% right in your summation. The shame / guilt / isolation they felt was awful. Add to that, that people "didn't know how to respond" (because it was NEVER discussed), and my friends were then left to deal with making others feel ok about the fact that they just lost their child / pregnancy. (the horrific irony of that, huh?) . The friends who dealt with it easier, were those who already had a network around them that DID talk about it, that DID see it as a (horrific) part of life... so even though the sense of loss / grief / trauma was still there, the "shame" that is so often attached to it, was not. And THIS is why I commend Chrissy & John for sharing their story. It would not have been done as a spur-of-the-moment thing. They would have known what was happening (because such a physical loss is never fast)... and had time to consider how they were going to deal with it publicly

You are a monster. A miscarriage is not "karma" because "she is sinful"

In this case, this will be helping many women who have had a miscarriage to feel that they are not alone and are not 'broken'. A miscarriage will make a woman feel like they have done something wrong, that their body has failed them in a way that is way beyond their control... it's very debilitating and very traumatic... While sharing such intimate moments in the public sphere can be frowned upon, I'm glad she did it. It's helping many to bond and heal. She is using her platform to help others by highlighting that this can happen to anyone - no matter the circumstances and that there should be no guilt or shame attached to it.

When my best friend was in the hospital dying from blood clots that cut off oxygen to her brain her boyfriend posted her condition in a series of facebook updates, because that was his largest social network and he didn't want the heart ache of telling every single person from her job, family, friends etc what had happened and what was going on individually, having to relieve the pain each time. Also it made it easy to keep people informed without having to take much time away from her. So people really need to stop judging Chrissy as an "attention whore" here for posting about her baby's death. Its likely a way to stem the questions from people over the next couple of months about what happened to the baby and which will dredge up these horrible memories each time as well as starting a conversation with other women who have been through the same thing and who can share how they felt and coped. Its like an online support group.

Miscarriage and infant loss is still taboo in a lot of society so talking about publicly can actually help others talk about it. I actually think it is quite important for things like this to be talked about so we don’t have to suffer silently. I found great comfort in talking to others with similar experiences when I had my ectopic pregnancy coz it meant I wasn’t alone.

I understand why you wouldn't do it (and I wouldn't either, personally) but I still think that it's good that if she's sharing all the great stuff she's sharing the heartbreaking too. And considering how many women say they now feel more heard and seen, I can't see it as a bad thing overall even though I would do it differently myself.

Sometimes snacks really are about that, eh? ;)

'I Only Need To Stick Around 4 Or 5 More Years': Doctor Shows How Horrific The US Healthcare System Is

Medical social worker here. What a reductionist, flawed view this is. Some people do make unwise choices about what they eat, but for so many people this is not a choice at all. So many people are on the "American Diet" because they live in food desserts and cannot access fruits, vegetables, or anything besides high sodium canned goods and sugary drinks. You clearly do not have a medical background nor any actual experience with patients. You are part of the problem. How about you go into a rough neighborhood that does not have a grocery store in sight and read what you just posted?
