Claire Holt gets candid about miscarriage fears after announcing that she is pregnant

Claire Holt went to her blog The corner over the weekend and opened up about dealing with the fear of miscarriage after debuting her bump at the Cannes Film Festival last week.

The 34-year-old Australian actress is currently expecting her third child with husband Andrew Joblon, and she wrote candidly about a miscarriage in 2018.

That tragic loss clouds Claire’s current pregnancy and fills her with fear and anxiety after she confirms a third baby is on the way.

“I did multiple tests every day to make sure the line was getting darker. My Google searches switched to miscarriage statistics and signs of loss,” she wrote.

“I often wonder what it must be like to go through a pregnancy without fear of something taking your baby away. Without waiting for bad news at every appointment.’

The Vampire Diaries star shared that even after “two healthy pregnancies,” she still feared what might happen.

She wrote, “I thought after two healthy pregnancies I might be a little more hopeful, but alas, the feeling was the same.

“I never really let myself get too excited, like it would somehow protect me from the pain if something wasn’t right. It’s a sad way to experience something so beautiful, but I think it’s human nature to want to protect yourself from heartbreak.’

Recalling a recent ultrasound appointment, Holt wrote that she got nervous when it came time to hear her baby’s heartbeat, but tried to overcome that fear by getting into the right frame of mind.

“I tried to accept that things would happen the way they were meant to and I had no control over it,” she wrote.

“I reminded myself that if I didn’t lose that first baby, I wouldn’t have mine [children] James or Elle. It certainly helped me curb the constant vortex of negative thoughts in my head.”

But even though she’s “still scared,” Claire is determined to protect her joy: “I’m still scared, of course. I know so much can happen between now and 40 weeks. However, I will not let those fears rob me of my joy.’

Holt’s blog post comes after she revealed her pregnancy rocking her budding baby bump in a gray Lanvin dress with a flowing train at the premiere of Killers of the Flower Moon in Cannes, France Saturday.
