“I did lose the baby. It wasn’t expected, it was closer to the end of the first trimester. We don’t have any real reasons why,” she began.
“I was still so grateful to have the experience of being able to conceive at this age and this time,” she went on, saying that she went through “a lot of depression” and that “it was hard to get out of bed” following the development.
“There are so many things that come when you really want a family and you want your family to be complete. There are so many dreams that you have. It was hard to face the fact that that’s not going to happen at this point in the junction,” she said of her family with husband Marcello Thedford.
To get pregnant, she said she used “natural remedies,” including going to a holistic healer.
The family includes three children Trina shares with her first husband, Courtland Davis.
“There were so many women who, even at 55 and older, still want to get pregnant or don’t want to be boxed into this ‘geriatric pregnancy’ thing,” she went on.
“I don’t know if I’m here to give advice for everybody, because everybody’s body is different, and you should listen to your doctors.”
“Part of me doesn’t ever want to go through this again,” she said.
“The conclusion I came to is, we’ll just keep loving each other, if something happens that way, fine, but I don’t want to put another anxiety on myself. Sometimes it really is better to let go and let God.”
