On March 11, Actress Aja Naomi King shared that she experienced two miscarriages before conceiving her rainbow baby.
"I really can't begin to express the fullness of our immense joy to be welcoming a baby into our family," she wrote in her Instagram caption. "With that I also want to express that this beautiful journey has not been devoid of heartbreak. This is my beautiful little rainbow baby."
She also acknowledged the millions of women who have openly shared their experiences with pregnancy loss. "I've been so deeply moved by the women who have openly shared their miscarriages," she said. "It brought me solace in a time that was incredibly painful to know I wasn't alone. To understand that this experience is common, horrible but still common."
The How to Get Away With Murder star expressed how afraid she's been throughout this pregnancy. "I won't lie, it's been hard to not carry my fear with me throughout this pregnancy. To believe that it's real and that this baby will be okay," she said. "That this beautiful gift will remain. But I try to not ignore the facts, and the facts are that I am healthy and my baby is healthy, my baby is growing and now kicking and constantly reminding me of their very real presence within me."
