Courteney Cox was pregnant during Friends' tenth season, which aired in 2004 and was the conclusion of the series.
Throughout the course of the show, Monica Gellar's character and her husband Chandler Bing (played by Matthew Perry) made numerous attempts to conceive children but were unsuccessful. TV's favorite couple received just that in the series finale when their surrogate, Erica (played by Anna Farris), gave birth to twins for them. With two children, the couple appeared to have a happy ending.
Coincidentally, during those ten years of Friends filming, Cox had reproductive troubles of her own. During that time, she and her ex-husband, David Arquette, tragically experienced many miscarriages; to be specific, she had seven miscarriages before finally giving birth to Coco Arquette in 2004.
She found that her blood contained a rare gene mutation that caused her antibodies to target the fetus. "It was really weird because everyone in my family has kids; I mean, they pop out like it's nobody's business, and no one in my family has a problem, so to me, I just thought this would not be a problem at all," she told NBC in 2004.
Was it hard for Courteney to portray Monica during miscarriages?
Courteney has acknowledged that it was occasionally challenging to maintain her sense of humor while dealing with her own personal issues behind the scenes because she had to play a comic role on the popular comedy. "That was hard, sometimes, like I remember one time I just had a miscarriage and Rachel [played by Jennifer Aniston] was giving birth; it was like that same time, oh my God, it was terrible having to be funny," she explained to NBC.
After struggling to get pregnant for many years, she finally gave birth to a healthy baby girl at age 40 after undergoing numerous rounds of IVF."I like real human stories, and yes, I had a difficult time," she said, according to USA Today. "I had a lot of miscarriages, and I don't think that's something people shouldn't talk about because it's unfortunate, but it happens."
Courteney gushed about being pregnant during a recent conversation with her teenage daughter. "Describe your pregnancy journey with me in three words," Coco said to her mom. "Exciting, emotional, great," the actress replied with a smile, to which her daughter sweetly replied, "Aw."

What is the plot of Friends?
The concept for "Friends," a television series about six friends in New York as they make their way through life and learn to mature as they reach their third decade, was developed in 1994.
The group's "elder sister," Monica, is the too-tidy and organized cook who works while pining for her ideal mate. Paleontologist Ross, Monica's older brother, has had a thing for Rachel his entire life. He's a laid-back guy who recently got divorced and has low self-esteem. Rachel has spent most of her life as a spoiled, aristocratic princess; she now needs to learn how to deal with reality. Ross' college friend Chandler is the one who can always be counted on to make a joke.
Phoebe is a charmingly odd masseuse who would have easily blended in with Haight Ashbury in the 1960s. And Joey, the friend who has a negative correlation between his intelligence and great looks, wants to be an actor.
The Friends cast consists of these six characters. Friends' incredible 10-year run came to an end in May 2004. A spin-off called “Joey” occupied the show's time slot for two years and was then canceled in 2006 as it hit an all-time low in viewership.
