For Ashley Graham and Shay Mitchell, pregnancy has come with some high highs and some low lows.
So low, in fact, that both stars just got extremely candid in revealing that they've suffered from prepartum depression.
For Ashley Graham and Shay Mitchell, pregnancy has come with some high highs and some low lows.
So low, in fact, that both stars just got extremely candid in revealing that they've suffered from prepartum depression.
Even on the road to motherhood, the model, who's currently just weeks (or even days!) away from welcoming her first child with husband, Justin Ervin, has remained extremely open with fans.
"same same but a little different," she captioned the brave image, which was widely-celebrated online.
Ashley made these revealing comments on her digital series called "Fearless With Ashley Graham."
Instead, it was the exact opposite.
"I just felt terrible, ” she said, even pausing to cry.
On a new episode of her podcast, "Pretty Big Deal with Ashley Graham," she revealed that she's been suffering from prepartum depression.
Mitchell was the perfect guest to have since she gave recently birth to a baby girl with boyfriend Matte Babel in October.
Like how being a mother for Shay didn’t "click in" until she heard her baby cry.
“It’s when you put the baby in the car seat and you’re like ‘How do we do this?'"
“I can’t say definitely that I went through it but I can say that I might have gone through something like it," Ashley shared.
“Then all of a sudden, my emotions, my mind, my body, things that I always had control over are now totally out of whack."
"I can’t talk to anybody about it, my husband doesn’t understand but he’s trying to be as supportive as possible."
Mitchell could relate to everything Graham went through.
"My mom said the same thing, and I’d be crying to her and she’d be like, ‘You’re just emotional, it’s just the hormones.’"
She continued:
"It doesn’t take away from this feeling, and it’s completely isolating.”
“I heard so much about postpartum, which is also a real thing but I’d never heard about prepartum depression," said Shay.
And with Ashley's due date fast approaching, we can't wait to see their adorable playdates together!
