“The past 48 hours have been some of the happiest, scariest and saddest times of my life,” Shawn wrote in the caption. “My husband Andrew and I found out that we were unexpectedly pregnant, only to find out hours later some tragic news. I have been crying more than I ever have, but am still optimistic for what is next.”
While it was a painful experience to recount, Shawn and Andrew say that knowing they are not alone in this has helped heal their broken hearts, and they pray that sharing their story will offer a sense of comfort to the 1 in 4 who deal with the taboo topic of miscarriage.
“This is by far the hardest video we’ve ever posted but we felt as though it was a story that needed to be shared as so many struggle with the same thing,” Shawn wrote on Instagram. “@andrewdeast I love you more than anything in this world and I know you are going to make the greatest Daddy in the world someday. Thank you for being my rock through all of this.”
