She continued, "I am so deeply and profoundly sad," admitting that she "felt so cocky" and "confident" going into the appointment that she "wasn't even listening" to her doctor as she scanned.

Upon hearing that her baby "stopped growing," DiDonato said, "Of course, immediately your brain goes to, like, 'When did that happen and why?' "

"Something that freaks me out about the whole thing is that life started here and it also ended here, and I'm still carrying that life," she shared, choking back tears.

DiDonato added that she didn't anticipate herself beginning to question, "Will I ever want to get pregnant again?" as someone who has always dreamed of having three children.

"I feel terrified to even try again, because what if this happens again? Or is this the new norm for me? I've always wanted a third baby, and I feel greedy for even saying that," she said. "It's just always been my dream to have three kids, but a part of me is like, 'Maybe this is the universe saying two is good for you.' "

DiDonato admits that "it's super hard not to blame yourself," noting that, "I'm not filming this to have people feel sorry for me. I have a wonderful life and I'm very blessed and have two healthy children. But if this makes anyone feel less alone, and I want to say, wish me luck."

"I don't even know if I'll f----ing post this, like who wants to see this," she said at the time to close out the video, adding in the caption that, "This was a few weeks ago."

"If you've experience this type of loss as well, I'm so sorry❤️," she continued in her caption.
