Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson East revealed Saturday that she learned she was expecting her first child and miscarried in a whirlwind span of 48 hours. 
 
 The gymnast, 25, shared a video titled "pregnancy + heartbreak" to her YouTube channel, and recounted the emotional journey alongside husband Andrew East. 
 
 "Today's video is a little bit sensitive," she said. "It's not the happiest video but we feel like a lot of people go through it so we wanted to share it." 
 
 The clip kicked off with Johnson recording her reaction to her two positive pregnancy tests, and eventually telling her husband with a tiny pair of his favorite shoes, Converse.

 "Definitely wasn't planning this, but it's really, really exciting!" she said. 
 
 But her tears of joy quickly turned sour, as just the next day, she began bleeding and suffering stomach pains.

 "It's been a roller coaster of a few days," she said. "We just got back from the doctor and I'm no longer pregnant, somehow lost the pregnancy already. It sucks. Definitely no fun. I felt like, going into it, we didn't even know if we were ready for it, we weren't sure if we could do it, and we were overwhelmed."

 "Yeah we were scared, we were overwhelmed, but then we talked about it and we started getting excited about it," East said as his wife held back tears. 
 
 Despite the setback, Johnson — who snagged a gold medal and three silvers at the 2008 Beijing Olympics — said she's staying optimistic, and hopes to grow her family soon. 
 
 "It won't stop us," she said. 
 
 Johnson and East wed in April 2016.

 The past 48 hours have been some of the happiest, scariest, and saddest times of my life. My husband Andrew and I found out that we were unexpectedly pregnant, only to find out hours later some tragic news. I have been crying more than I ever have, but am still optimistic for what is next. 
 
 
 
 Thanks to our fans, friends, and family and Dr Goldberg for all the love and support.

– Gold medal gymnast Shawn Johnson East reveals in an emotional video that she miscarried two days after she found out she was pregnant. Johnson East, 25, posted a video titled pregnancy + heartbreak to her YouTube channel on Saturday announcing her happiness on learning she was pregnant, and then her devastation when she loses the baby, Time reports. In an opener, Johnson East and husband Andrew East tell viewers the 20-minute video is "a little bit sensitive" and "not the happiest" but, she adds, "We feel that a lot of people go through this so we wanted to share it." The footage tracks when the ex-gymnast, who took home a gold medal and three silvers in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, tears up after two pregnancy tests confirm she's pregnant, to when she divulges the news to her smiling hubby by handing him baby Converse sneakers. "Definitely wasn't planning this, but it's really, really exciting!" she says, per the New York Daily News. The next day Johnson East reports bleeding and the video shows East stroking her hair before they drive to see a doctor, where an ultrasound reveals the sad news. "So, it’s been a roller coaster of a few days," Johnson East says. "We just got back from the doctor and I’m no longer pregnant. Somehow, I lost the pregnancy already. It sucks." She adds, "We didn't even know if we were ready for it, we weren't sure if we could do it, and we were overwhelmed." Johnson East says she'll stay positive and hopes for a family in the future. "It won't stop us," she says. (Nancy Kerrigan says she endured six miscarriages over eight years.)
