“I am the opposite of pregnant.”

Chrissy Teigen has begged her followers to stop asking her if she is pregnant.

The mum, who lost her baby boy Jack in 2020, urged her fans to stop asking intrusive questions.

She explained that she is currently going through IVF.

“I posted about it in my stories, but I wanted to let you guys know I’m balls deep in another IVF cycle to save as many eggos as I possibly can,” she said.

The mum-of-two revealed her hopes to have another child one day.

She said IVF is going well for her so far and hopes to “make some strong, healthy embryos”.

“I honestly don’t mind the shots…they make me feel like a doctor/chemist…but the bloating is a bitch, so I humbly beg you to stop asking if I’m pregnant because while I know it’s said with excited, good intentions, it just kind of sucks to hear because I am the opposite of pregnant!”

“But also like please stop asking people, anyone, if they’re pregnant,” she pleaded.

“I said this in the comments and got yelled at because the internet is wild but I’d rather be the one to tell you and not some poor woman who will look you in the eyes through tears and that’s how you finally learn.”

One woman praised her for speaking out.

“I cannot believe people think it’s acceptable to ask or comment about being pregnant or not. Thanks for using your platform to bring awareness to this, ivf, loss and so many struggles.”

Another added, “It’s beyond frustrating people feel like it’s okay to ask about pregnancy. Some people are struggling, some never want kids, some simply are a bit bloated and now feel bad about their body.”

Teigen is a mum to daughter Luna and son Miles.

The model and her husband John Legend lost their baby boy Jack when he was just 20 weeks old in 2020.
