The star credited son Presley, two, for being a 'major part' of the reason she has stayed so strong, but admitted: 'I have days where I just sit and cry!'
Jess also admitted that she still wants three children, after confirming her split from fiancé Dan Lowry.
She spoke to new! magazine about losing Teddy last November and said: 'I've had some therapy and spoken to someone and that's definitely helped... I have days where I just sit and cry, and all I want is him back, but that's just grief.'
Looking to the future, Jessica revealed that she still intends to expand her family, saying: 'I've always said I want three children and that won't change for me because it's my dream.'

Dan - who she became engaged to in August 2018 after six months of dating - moved out after the couple parted ways in May, just six months after losing their unborn baby.
Jessica admitted: 'You don't expect everything to unravel so quickly. To lose a baby and the person you thought you were going to have more children with and get married to, it's been a bit of a shock.'
But the Love Islander branded her ex an 'amazing dad,' and explained that their split may not be forever, but that they simply need 'time apart'.
Despite being single, Jessica insisted she's not interested in dating as she confessed: 'I can't deal with anymore heartbreak, honestly!'

She said: 'I've had hundreds of messages from other woman who have been through the same thing, saying thank you so much for helping me.
'I think it's really important to be open if you can and if that's what you want to do as it helps so many people.'
Jessica added that she tries to help as many people as she can but sometimes she finds other people's stories about baby loss 'hard'.
She explained: 'I try to help as many people as I can, obviously, it can be hard. It is hard to read other people's stories about baby loss. It can be hard to want to help everyone.'

The reality star said: 'I will be completely honest, I have always suffered with my mental health on and off over the years, since I was young.
'Since I was very young, I'm trying to speak a bit more about it now, it is something I have struggled with for a while, especially anxiety as well, I really struggled with that.
'I’m not ashamed to say in the past I have taken medication for anxiety and depression, on and off over the years.'
