Edge host announces she's pregnant on-air

  • 25/07/2017

An Edge host has made an emotional pregnancy announcement live on air, after experiencing multiple miscarriages.

Sharyn Casey opened up about her struggles to get pregnant with her partner Bryce, "let alone stay pregnant", on Tuesday.

The pair are now 15 weeks pregnant.

"We lost a little boy last year and I wanted to be confident but I still find it terrifying beyond belief to say it out loud," she says.

"This was a brutal blow for us as it was the first time we'd heard the heartbeat of one of our babies," she later added in a blog post. "It was the most beautiful sound we'd ever heard. Until it slowed down a few days later and we literally across a week heard our son's heart beat fade into silence."

Casey explained on air that she understands hearing others announce their pregnancies can be "bittersweet".

"Part of you is really happy and the second part just wants to rip their head off because you're so incredibly jealous… I just want to acknowledge people that are having a crap time.

"Don't give up."
