usmagazine.com:

While Claire Holt is excited to welcome her third child with husband Andrew Joblon, she was admittedly wary considering her past pregnancy loss.“I started to imagine who this little person would be and how excited I was to have another one, and then I was hit with an overwhelming wave of anxiety.

I guess that’s what happens after miscarriage,” the Originals alum, 34, wrote via her Corner by Claire blog on Friday, May 26, noting that she felt the same emotions when she was expecting son James, 4, and daughter Elle, 2. “I took multiple tests each day to make sure the line was getting darker.

My Google searches switched to miscarriage statistics and signs of loss.”She added: “I often wonder what it must be like to go through a pregnancy without worrying that something will take your baby from you.

Without waiting for bad news at every appointment. … I never really let myself get too excited as if it would somehow protect me from the pain if something weren’t right.
