    Your TH-cam serious “I love my baby but...” helped me during my 2nd pregnancy after I had a miscarriage. Thank you for sharing all the ups and downs of life.

    Timmy is such a great interviewer. It didn’t feel like he was talking to you as his wife, but as a real woman going through something that so many women struggle with. You guys are really changing the game.

    I had a miscarriage in my first pregnancy and I never knew miscarriage was so common because no one spoke about it.. I now have a 1.5 year old beautiful baby girl and I want to say I have so much love for you guys, thank you for being open, thank you.

    • @whitneyport

    What a refreshing site to hear someone speak so candidly snd sincerely about such a difficult topic without feeling the need to be completely “politically correct”. And you seem to each be such a great support system for each other!

    Thank you for putting this story out there, you shouldn’t be afraid or ashamed, you should feel proud and brave, no matter what others say. We’re all different and have different coping mechanisms when we’re vulnerable and your reaction is normal.

    The fact you got emotional about what happened proves you are not a monster. Not everyone is meant to have the same things as everyone else. Your life will take you where you need to go and bring you the people that are meant to stay. You being happy with your life proves you are where you're meant to be. Sending love ♡

    Thank you for talking about this. I had an ectopic pregnancy this summer and was not ready to be pregnant. I was relieved that it wasn't viable and could proceed with my life and career as normal. Pregnancy is complicated, we should be talking about it that way.

    Thank you for sharing... I am going through a miscarriage as we speak and am meeting my doctor this afternoon to go over those 3 options. I have no idea which is right for me, but hearing you and Timmy talk it out made me feel a little less alone today. Always do what is right for you and your family and try not to feel guilty for how you're feeling ❤️

    I’m so very sorry you’ve had to walk through this. Miscarriage is so mentally, emotionally, and physically difficult to go through. I went through one on my first Mother’s Day when my oldest was 7 months old. At the time we weren’t ready to have another baby, we were actively trying not to get pregnant, but when we did we got excited, and thought, “Well, this is our journey, let’s make the best of it.” When we lost that baby though, I was devastated. It’s been 4 years, and I’ve had two more children, but I still think about that baby. However you are feeling, it’s valid, and it’s okay.

    • @whitneyport

      man, it can all get so complicated. I'm sorry you went through that

  • @caityburgett
    @caityburgett 5 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    I find it so romantic that your husband refers to you as a specimen! As a woman who went through a miscarriage before my second was born, I found this incredibly helpful. It’s hard to heal from something so taboo. Good for you both for being so vulnerable. We need more conversations like this.

    • @whitneyport
      @whitneyport  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      He thinks he got someone out of his league, but i think the same thing too. I'm sorry for your loss. I know how you feel and we need to keep talking about these things and be there for one another.

    Thank you once again for your open and honest discussion. Going through a miscarriage was never something I would have thought happened to me, but it did and I wish we talked about it more freely. There’s a lot of shame surrounding the topic and we need to let that go. I hate the term “I lost the baby”, miscarriage is something that happened to me by no fault of my own.

  • @ashleyconnell5987

    I’ve been dealing with infertility for 2.5 years now. Thank you for opening up about this subject. It really needs to be spoken about more! Talking to my friends and family about all my struggles have really helped me. If I kept everything inside, I would be a miserable person.

    • @whitneyport
      @whitneyport  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm so sorry for your struggles. I think there is still so much more to discuss about fertility.

    @cel8683 5 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    There's no need to feel ashamed about your thoughts. This is your life- and there's no need to follow a timeline. Do what feels right for you - or don't. But don't lose yourself on this journey. I really love how authentic and honest you are.. Thanks for sharing your story 🦋 your words inspired me a lot. Feel hugged, greetings from Germany 😊

    • @whitneyport
      @whitneyport  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I really really do feel it. Thank you. Part of it is not wanting to upset how good things are now, which also makes me feel selfish, but it's not just for me...it's for Sonny and Timmy too.

    I am in tears 😭💔 same happened to me few months ago, I completely relate to your mix feelings... it's a hard situation to go thru. And truly thank both of you for putting this topic on the table. Although is still difficult for me to discuss it, the support your husband gave you, made me feel relieved ... no one shares things like this and I felt alone for so long until now

    This was so real and raw! Thank you for sharing. As someone who has gone through years of fertility treatments, IVF and a miscarriage, I do not judge you at all for your feelings, I actually applaud your honesty! I thankfully was blessed with a son a week younger than Sonny and I feel like we've been on this same journey together as being a mom didn't come naturally or easily for me either. Continue to share your hearts with us! PS I love your shirt!

    • @whitneyport
      @whitneyport  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You are exactly the woman I was thinking about when recording this. I was so afraid of upsetting those with fertility struggles, but know that I truly sympathize. I'm so happy you have your boy. This motherhood stuff is not easy, but we got you!

  • @vanessalauren664
    @vanessalauren664 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thank you beautiful girl for your honesty! I had a my 1st child at the tender age of 19 years old. When she was 14 years old I fell pregnant. My other half and I went through so many emotions of shock that we felt so selfish that our feelings were wrong because we were almost done raising our 1st born. We started planning a life without small children to take care. A life where we could turn our focus on the years we missed when we were young. I absolutely hated being pregnant and going through that experienced scared me to my core. 7 weeks after we found out I was pregnant we got an ultrasound and found out our baby had no heartbeat. And just like you I felt a sense of relief because I knew I didn't want to go through being pregnant again. My doctor also suggested me to have a DNC and I followed his instruction and had it done.
    Then almost exactly a year later of going through that we found out I was pregnant with our son Ari. With this news I didn't have the same fear that I had finding out about my second pregnancy. Maybe because we were in a place in our lives that we just took the news better or maybe deep down we just knew it was meant to be.
    Now I'm 37 with an 18 year old daughter and a 22 month old son. Everyone that finds out how far my children are apart in age think I'm crazy but I honestly am old enough to not worry about people's opinions. I know for me and my spouse having our children so far apart in age was what was meant for us not anyone else.
    You and Timmy have your own story to write and maybe it wont be like mine or anyone else's but it's a story I know your going to be proud of.
    Don't ever change! ❤

    I have one child, he’s almost five. I love just having one. I love that I don’t feel like I’m spread too thin and I can give my son whatever attention he needs. Honestly, I would be spread too thin and too stressed with another child. I really value the low stress parenting my husband and I have now. We have a lot more financial freedom, as well. I do get questions “when are you going to have another baby” and I’ll get an awkward “oh..” when I respond with “we’re not having another.” I’m perfectly okay with being a “one and done” mom. I used to feel guilty because of societal pressures to have more and my boy won’t have any siblings, but he has plenty of friends and cousins. My husband on the other hand, wanted one more, so it took him a little longer to be okay with it. After some long talks we’re on the same page

      Lindsey Stein Thank u for telling your story. I myself don’t have any children yet but I know that when I do, I only want ONE child.

      I have 2 children one boy one girl & I'm very blessed to have one of each gender. but no matter if I would have had 2 boys or 2 girls I always just wanted 2..... we're far from rich but my husband works so hard to provide us a nice home, car, food, clothes, vaca ext... I just always felt that I wanna give the 2 I have the very best we can rather than have more & I get hate all the time for not having more... no everyone wants 4 or 5+ kids & I wish more people would respect that! So thank you for sharing that you just want one. It's so nice to see other women that feel the same! 😊

    • @shareekristin
      @shareekristin 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I hate that question. I got it all the time and when I finally said, “I’ve had seven miscarriages” they would give a shocked look and change the subject. It’s such a rude question. Parenting is a choice between those choosing to be parents. Not outside people. And having one child is amazing. Having 2 would be amazing. But I’m 38 and mine is in college and I have my whole life ahead of me. Nothing wrong with that!

  • @sarahkrahe8218

  • @angelaburton5632
    @angelaburton5632 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I was 23 and ended up pregnant by someone that i thought i was in love with me. Long story short i ended up choosing to end the pregnancy. The guilt i went through making that choice still ways on me decades later. At 31 I married my now husband, and all of the when are you going to have a baby conversations started. At that point i kinda felt like i had lost the right to make that choice. If it was going to happen it would happen. At 37 my health started to go down hill. I was told that i was going to have to have a hysterectomy. After never really feeling like i should have kids, i cant tell you the guilt i felt because my body was broken and could not make one. You are brave to share your story! The more people talk about things like this the better woman/mankind will be.

    • @whitneyport

    Love how your husband always listen and loves you for who you are!
    I also really relate to the second child question. When I first admitted to my fiancé I wasn’t sure about another I was so scared, I told him I was scared he would eventually leave me for not wanting a bigger family. But like your husband said he wanted a life with me no matter what my decision would be even if he wanted more kids, he didin’t wanted them if I didin’t. It was a relief!
    Love your honest posts, we need more women like you!

    I had a miscarriage at 17 weeks and was devastated. It was further complicated with hemorrhaging and an emergency DNC and blood transfusion. My situation was different than yours but so is everyones! As all situations are different, so are people's feelings and reactions.
    You have nothing to be ashamed or feel bad about! You are being honest which is more than many can do so openly and honestly.
    I love my kids but HATED every aspect of pregnancy.
    On a side note, you both seem to have the most genuine and caring relationship.

    I’ve had 3 miscarriages and it’s hard every time. Sending you love, sending every person who’s suffered a miscarriage love. 💕
    Also, I completely understand the “I don’t know, let’s see what happens”. I’ve felt the exact same way. I also understand telling family and friends early on in a pregnancy because no one should suffer a miscarriage alone (unless they want to of course). There would be less shame surrounding miscarriage if it weren’t so taboo.

  • @ziamarie
    @ziamarie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I just wanna thank you for being open and honest enough to put this video out there. I had a miscarriage and i still struggle with it to this day. I know I'm not the only one who's had one and it's nice to hear others open up about it because it is seriously one of the hardest and most traumatic things to ever go through. I remember wondering why my body hates me so much that it literally killed my baby. I've done alot of healing since it happened but theres still times i get upset. My heart goes out to any woman who has experienced it. I am so happy for you and Timmy that you were blessed to have Sonny.

    There are so many intense opinions about women's bodies and what we do with them. I think people who share their stories/experiences are heroes. There are women out there who don't have a good community or support, so these stories are NEEDED and SO helpful for processing these traumas. You're amazing and Timmy is an absolute gem. Thank you for sharing this experience with the public.

    Wow! I’m crying along with you. Feel for what you had to go through. Feelings are feelings and you have every right to feel whatever you need too. Kudos for being vulnerable and putting it out there for us all to hear.💕 My husband and I were always asked when are you having another? He will be lonely without a sibling? And the list goes on...In the beginning I felt guilty saying anything, but eventually got up the nerve to say we weren’t having another. Our son is amazing and I just wanted to devote my everything to him and him only. He’s not a spoiled child, he has friends, is very well mannered, smart, and the list goes on. It was the right choice for our family...and we don’t regret not having another, even though many people voiced there opinions that we would.
    Whit and Tim, please, you do you, whatever that is, and whatever fits for your family. What’s meant to be will be! Love you both💕 Thanks for having the conversation.

    You are both amazing and so sweet! Your marriage is so beautiful and inspiring. No one should ever feel ashamed of how they feel. Those are their feelings and not everyone is going to understand them.. all we can do is help support them. Because we can’t take those feelings away all we can do is support them and help them get through it the best we can. I have 4 kids and constantly think about what it would be like to just have one or even just two kids. Being a mom is exhausting and so tiring. But in the end like Timmy said once you get to it and your in it you realize it’s actually pretty amazing.

    This was beautiful. I experienced a miscarriage as well and it was one of the most lonely times I ever experienced. The process was scary and as a whole I wish the doctors response was different rather than just being another patient for the day. Thank you for sharing your story.

      No one should have to go through this alone and I hear you on doctors. It was not my experience, but if they are cold or clinical the whole thing feels even more sad and bizarre.

    I’m 4 years late but, wow Whitney. You’re so strong and you’re reaction is completely your own and you shouldn’t have to justify it to anyone. And Timmy, you’re the true definition of what a husband should be. Kind, empathetic, empowering, thoughtful and so funny. I love this channel, and love you guys and your openness.

    As someone who had a miscarriage, I respect your honesty. Having a miscarriage is very difficult and it takes a tole on your body and mental health. I went through phases myself of why? And what if? Followed by depression. It’s okay to be vulnerable. Allow yourself to be vulnerable because many of us go through it. I related so much with your story and appreciated it.

    Hi Whitney & Timmy- thank you for your courage to share. My husband and I have been through 4 miscarriages and we are currently battling to hold onto our 5th pregnancy. I found myself looking for stories I could listen to and ran into yours. I'm not sure how to feel right now either, as you said when you were in that "grey" area of not knowing what will happen. I try so hard to believe in myself and keep the hope that this will turn around. I see the two of you talking about it together so beautifully and open and it warms my heart to see a couple that is overcoming it together, not afraid to share, in hopes it can make a difference in some way. You made a difference for me in that I should not be afraid to be more open about my experiences. In fact, when I think abut them all it really could be a movie with how they all went down- sad, dramatic, and maybe even a little comical. Even in my current state, I feel encouraged to share now. I am so sorry for your loss and pray for only the best of things to come your way.

    I feel the EXACT same way about having a second child. While I want my daughter to have a sibling so badly, I also so want to have my (somewhat) independence back and feel like my old self again while getting to be a mom, too. Having a baby was a far bigger undertaking than I assumed it was prior to becoming a mom and I’m not sure I want to go through the entire process again. TBD. Thank you for sharing!! You’re an inspiration!

    Thank you so much for sharing this. I am now 36 and absolutely love my life, but my journey to this place was tough to put it lightly. I was very out of control as a teenager and had a very severe drug problem. When I was 15 I was pregnant and had a miscarriage. I didn't even realize what had happened until years later and had actually blocked it out of my memory for many years. At the time I was strung out on heroin and meth in addition to being extremely young for pregnancy. When I remembered what had occurred it was extremely traumatic but I was also filled with so much guilt. I still have guilt about it. I feel guilty for believing and knowing that the miscarriage was a blessing for me and the unborn child. Your story helped me to see that no matter your situation it's okay to feel relief when these things naturally occur. I have now been clean for 20 years and have an amazing son that means the world to me. Thank you so much for being so real and vulnerable, your story is going to help a lot of women.

    Being a mom is losing control over life. Children have free will, they aren't robots. It's like getting on a rollercoaster. Fun, scary, angering at times when you want off but can't get off. For me, being a mom is sometimes doing the opposite of what I personally feel like doing. It's about making sacrifices. Sometimes I don't like making sacrifices but I do it. Love for my son is my fuel. Whitney, I bet you're an amazing, loving mom. It would be ashame if you didn't have another child because you have a lot of love to give and your child would love to have a sibling. I see you having at least 3 one day. ❤

    You guys did great. Enjoyed listening to your honest conversation. I have had two miscarriages one when I was younger which I felt a little relieved but also I felt guilty. My second one was with my husband which was devastating because I felt ready, but year later I had my only son, for which I am totally grateful for.

    You are NOT a monster 💗 You are human- and have mixed feelings. It is completely understandable. It takes time to process. Your feelings are very similar to how I felt when I went through it years ago. Thank you for putting this out into the world. 💗

  • @natt_32
    @natt_32 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Im sorry for your loss. Im currently recovering from a second miscarriage in 6 months. The first was a spontaneous natural loss which was extremely traumatizing. The second was a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks, and to spare the trauma, we knew to do the d&c. We told people both times that i was pregnant and each time we had loads of support when we lost the babies. I don't regret any of my decisions. Miscarriage is a heavy topic and taboo to society, but its real, and it happens. Talking about about it and hearing from other women, (however they feel about it) makes you feel not so alone in the world.

  • @amyjoskowitz2194

    So brave of Whitney to express all of these feelings which all of us ladies have felt at some point. I've been a fan of hers for over 13 years, since I was 23, and she is still one of the most authentic people I've ever seen on reality TV. Her honesty, ethics, and integrity in all of her work environments are admirable. I hope MTV features her and Timmy more for the next season of the Hills.

    I appreciate your openness to this topic. I too just went through a miscarriage and it was very traumatic and I also had the same feelings about having a second child. I feel like I'm a bad mom for not wanting a second and being so scared. It was not a planned pregnancy and I had just wrapped my head around it and then at my first OB appointment in front of my husband and 2 year old we were told no heartbeat 💔. Now I don't know where to go from here....
