The actress first shared a sonogram photo with a broken heart emoji before posting a lengthy note about how it's sometimes "easier to only showcase the good times on social media."
"Having so many people follow me on Instagram and read my posts is both incredibly humbling and hugely uplifting," Mitchell wrote. "The support and affection that so many of you show me lifts me up during even my darkest days, one of which happened last year after I miscarried and lost the child of my hopes and dreams."

"In the spirit of the new year, I think that we need to remember that we are all on this journey together -- in good times and in bad -- and to remind ourselves that we seldom really know or understand the struggles and hardships that other people are going through," she continued. "So, for 2019, let's all try to be a little more compassionate, empathetic, patient and thoughtful with each other."
