Celebrities Team Up For a Powerful PSA on Prenatal Loss: "You Did Nothing Wrong"

Melissa Rauch is speaking out about pregnancy loss, and she wants others to do the same. Back in July, the Big Bang Theory actress revealed her candid fears about pregnancy since suffering a heartbreaking miscarriage, but by teaming up with a group of celebrities who have had similar experiences, she's hoping to open the flow of communication about prenatal loss and eliminate the stigma surrounding it. In a partnership with Glamour, these 15 familiar faces encourage women to speak out about their losses and find solace in the huge community of women who have been through the same thing.

After opening up about her loss in her original essay, Melissa couldn't believe how many people reached out to her to share their own stories, so her PSA is a way to encourage women to talk about these things. "What became abundantly clear from the massive cross section of women out there who have experienced this kind of personal tragedy is the importance of shedding light on this issue that is traditionally stranded in the shadows," the actress wrote. "The hope being that those who are desperate to feel less alone can in turn be alleviated of the sadness, fear, and stigma that surrounds it."

"There are so many women out there who are going through what you're going through, so why the hell are we all suffering in silence?" In honor of Pregnancy Loss Awareness Month, these women are asking you to share your stories, and "please know, you did nothing wrong." Watch the video featuring Melissa, Vanna White, Nancy Kerrigan, June Diane Raphael, and so many more.
