Hilaria Baldwin Opens Up About 2019 Miscarriage In Candid Post

Hilaria began her post, writing, “So much of motherhood is waiting and realizing that there is so much beyond our control.”

“As I approach the time when I lost the second baby in 2019, at 16 weeks, I get more nervous,” she explained. “I get asked all the time how to stay calm and make it through after loss. To be honest, it’s hard to stay calm, even if someone hasn’t experienced loss.”

“I experience intense implantation cramping in the first tri,” she continued. “I expressed my frustration to my mother when I was pregnant with Carmen. I thought at any moment I’d start bleeding…she told me ‘this is just the beginning, Hilaria…this is preparation for an entire lifetime of being a mother and not being able to control so much. You must live and learn to be.’”

“Going on 7 children later, and multiple losses, this is so true,” she added. “Frustrating for my controlling Capricorn mind, but true. Learning to let go and understand we are in a nature system that is not always benevolent, has been a difficult and important lesson for me. One that I have not mastered, but I’m constantly working on it.”

She added, “When I get nervous, I focus on my breath and try to calm muscles of stress in my body. This helps my mind.”

Hilaria also opened up about the difficulty of obtaining a doctor's appointment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

She explained, “I have this Doppler from when I was pregnant with Edu. I didn’t go to as many dr appts because of COVID, so I did little checks on him at home. What a wild time to be having a baby. I decided to dig it up this pregnancy, as I can feel my stress level rise, approaching the 4 month mark, interestingly coinciding with the baby I lost due date.”

“Do I recommend getting one of these? Perhaps. The question is: is it causing stress or calming?” she asked. “I’ve read that sometimes women can’t find the heartbeat (even tho it’s there), because it can be tricky. That is an important thing to think about. Also, sometimes people get addicted to it..that’s something to consider.”

She concluded, “Anyway, as always, I like to pass on my thoughts and experience with you, just in case it’s helpful ? the one I bought is sonoline b.”
