Teigen said that she used to bring her dog Puddy with her and eat outside the restaurant or sit at the bar alone. "And I would never ever miss a Thursday," she wrote. "Thursday was lasagna verde day — a bubbling, piping hot dish of cheesy lasagna with the toastiest edges you could ever wish for. I’d sit there with my multiple double vodka sodas and get day drunk by myself (this is not a brag lol I was basically a functioning alcoholic) then buy hats I didn’t like or need at urban outfitters."

Teigen explained that she threw herself into writing the book so she would not have to think about losing her baby: "I don’t really feel like I fully processed jack and now that I don’t have the alcohol to numb it away, things are just…there, waiting to be acknowledged."

"We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we've never felt before," she shared at the time. "We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn't enough."

"We feel all of your love and truly appreciate you," she said, adding that she is grateful for her life and her wonderful babies Luna, 4, and Miles, 2. "On this darkest of days, we will grieve, we will cry our eyes out. But we will hug and love each other harder and get through it."

Teigen has since gotten her late son's name tattooed on her wrist.
