Hilaria Baldwin is embracing the lessons learned in thewake of her miscarriageearlier this month.
Baldwin said that while it was incredibly difficult losing her unborn child, the tragedy came with a silver lining in that it kickstarted a discussion.
The yoga instructor, 35, says it’s been eye-opening to see her fellow moms come forward with similar stories after she shared her own personal news on Instagram.
“The reason I shared it was what everybody saw in the results … That is what is extremely important, to see all these moms come forward and people saying, ‘Hey, you know what, this is giving me the courage to say this and I had a miscarriage 40 years ago,’ or, ‘This happened to me last week,’ or, ‘This is happening to me right now,’ ” she explains.

Baldwin explains that she’s had easy pregnancies with all four of her children, making her miscarriage even harder.
“Especially, it’s been a very magical experience my other four times around where, of course pregnancy is not super easy but in the grand scheme of things, compared to this, I was always getting good news when I would go to the doctor. It was different to not get the good news, that’s something that I had to make peace with,” she says.
“In some ways I think that this soul came in to start a very healing conversation for people and for that I am forever grateful that this little soul was with us for a while, for a few weeks,” Baldwin adds.
