There is no heartbeat today at my scan ... so it's over ... but I have some pretty strong and amazing heartbeats right here. I am so pleased with this love and I feel so fortunate. Thank you all for listening, for your support, and sharing your own personal stories. We are stronger together ... I hope this conversation continues to grow. Much love and appreciation to all of you

Hilaria Baldwin had previously reported her worry about miscarriage on Instagram. The heartbeat of her embryo is not very strong, the chance of a viable pregnancy low.

As a reason for her openness she wrote: "I want to contribute to the realization that miscarriages are normal and should not be stigmatized."
