Celebrities have influenced birth-- for better and worse. Victoria Beckham's multiple elective c-sections made headlines as well as Ricki Lake's home birth. Chrissie Teigen is the most recent celebrity to bring her experience into the spotlight, even if it's heartbreaking.
With the loss of their third baby, Jack, Chrissie Teigen and John Legend have chosen to not only have birth photography of their baby, but also to share the photographs and their letter to Jack with the world.
They're not alone though. About 4 in every 1,000 births is a baby who lives less than 4 weeks. And they're willingness to be open with others and draw attention to the need for parents to be able to commemorate the birth of their special baby could help others.
