"The first time that I was pregnant last year, Matt and I hadn't been planning, it happened and we were really excited about it," Shay added. "I was like 14 weeks, at that point, I had no idea the percentage of miscarriages. When it happened I was just, completely blindsided by it."

"But, it's not like I forgot about that happening, so of course I'm like super happy, but I still feel for that one that I lost."
