These stars appear to hope that by publicly discussing their struggle in conceiving babies, it will allow them to tell fellow women who face the same issue that they are not alone.

AceShowbiz - Gabrielle Union detailed her battle with infertility in her memoir, "We're Going to Need More Wine". The "Bring It On" star, who went through years of failed IVF cycles and around nine miscarriages, penned on the book, "On those days where I felt like I was circling the drain emotionally, physically, spiritually, I allowed myself to have a freaking moment. If I needed to put on 'Beaches' and cry along with Bette Midler, I did that. I allowed myself to be a freaking human."
The actress, however, told others to keep find hope. "Fertility issues strike so many people," the wife of Dwyane Wade said on "Today". "You do not have to be lurking in the shadows, going to your doctor's appointment in full disguise. You are not defective. You are part of a very, very, very large community that understands every step you have been through. There is hope." Gabrielle and Dwyane welcomed their first child, a daughter named Kaavia James, in November 7, 2018 via surrogate.
