She explained,

“There’s a lot more risk involved this time. I was on bed rest for my first trimester, which was really tough and took a lot out of me. But at the end of the day, every bit of it has been worth it — to feel them and watch us grow.”

Further, she noted that the pair just marked a “bittersweet” milestone, sharing,

“There’s a lot of emotion involved right now with just surpassing that bittersweet milestone. And now, making it further than ever,”

Adding to that the NFL player said sharing their painful story with the world ultimately helped them grieve and heal. He said,

“We felt like the only ones there, but then you hear people’s stories and it helped us tell ours and keep our daughter’s name alive, to honor her in a sense. It certainly contributed to our healing.”
