It didn’t takelong for the guilt to creep in, she admitted: “I just remember feeling this sense of, ‘Oh my God, what have I done? Have I done something? Was this my fault? Should I not have gone running? Did I eat something bad? Was it because I wore perfume? Is it because I had a glass of wine two days before I found out I was pregnant?’ ”
But eventually, Holt embraced a forward-looking attitude, telling Dr. Elliot Berlin, “I feel I wouldn’t have met this little guy if that pregnancy had gone aheadand there must be a reason for that. … I’ve gotten to a place [where I think] there is a reason that happened to me and as awful as it was, I wouldn’t change it.”

The elegant fête featured a set of large blue balloons reading “OH BOY,” as well as delectable-looking fruit and vegetable spreads for guests to nosh on.
Instead of showering the pregnant star with gifts, all guests were askedto bring children’s books. However, there was one traditional shower element that did make its way into the event: a delicious blue cake.
“Theshower was such a special daybecause it made it all feel real for me. I pinch myself when I think about holding my little boy in my arms,” Holt told PEOPLE at the time. “It was really wonderful to have my family and friends together, many of whom had traveled a long way to be there.”
