Alexander Ludwigand wife Lauren Ludwig are opening up about their third pregnancy loss.

“Last week @alexanderludwig and I had our 3rd miscarriage. I decided I wanted to share because I don’t think it’s a shameful thing to talk about. I want to help others realize how common miscarriages are and how they aren’t something to be embarrassed about,” she continued.

“Going through this has made me realize, I definitely am not alone. It’s so common and yet, I feel its not talked about nearly enough,” she added. “If more of us talked about these things, maybe we would feel less alone and at fault. Information is power and I want to start sharing more of it.”
