New England Patriots safety Devin McCourty and his wife, Dr. Michelle McCourty, announced Saturday the loss of their daughter, Mia, after a stillborn birth Sunday.
Michelle provided details in an Instagram post (via ESPN's Mike Reiss), which Devin shared on Twitter:
"I cry as I type this. ... Dev and I suffered the most painful experience of our lives. My pregnancy had resulted in a still birth at almost 8 months of being pregnant-at exactly 31 weeks 2 days when we found out that the baby girl growing inside me no longer had a heart beat after being completely fine the week before at my last doctor's (appointment).
