Chrissy Teigen recently announced she is undergoing IVF again, a little over a year after she suffered a pregnancy loss.
The news comes a bit more than a year after Chrissy Teigen and Husband John Legend experienced a pregnancy loss at 20 weeks with their son Jack.

In an Instagram post, Teigen shared a photo of her stretching with the following caption: “I wanted to let you guys know I’m balls deep in another IVF cycle to save as many eggos as I possibly can and hopefully make some strong, healthy embryos. I honestly don’t mind the shots…they make me feel like a doctor/chemist…but the bloating is a bitch.”
Chrissy Teigen also made a plea with her fans and anyone reading: I humbly beg you to stop asking if I’m pregnant because while I know it’s said with excited, good intentions, it just kind of sucks to hear because I am the opposite of pregnant! But also like please stop asking people, anyone, if they’re pregnant,” she wrote in the caption. “I said this in the comments and got yelled at because the internet is wild but I’d rather be the one to tell you and not some poor woman who will look you in the eyes through tears and that’s how you finally learn”.
Chrissy Teigen’s fans have made it very clear they appreciate her stance on asking people if they are pregnant, one user writing “I don’t care if a person’s stomach is out as far as their arm, you never ask a woman if she is pregnant.”
