It’s the time of many of the Teen Mom cast’s lives that their families are getting bigger and bigger. They finally have the time, money, and maturity to raise their children properly, and for the most part, are stable enough to make the right decision about having more kids.
As their families continue to grow, fans are seeing some interesting patterns about the genders of their children. Kailyn Lowry just revealed that she’s having her fourth boy, while Leah Messer has three girls.
As for Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra, even though they’re only raising two girls together, they’ve had three girls total. It’s no wonder this baby boy news is shaking the cast up so much!
2020 may be the year of babies for Teen Mom. Before the huge news about Catelynn and Tyler broke, Kailyn Lowry confirmed rumors that she’s having her fourth child!
Kailyn spilled the news in a partnership with a company called Peanut.
"We’re confirming the news, baby #4 is coming soon! 🎉" she shared.
She went on:
"I’m almost 16 weeks pregnant & it’s been a rough few months this time around. I've had nausea, morning sickness, and absolutely no energy. 😭 This week I’m starting to feel a bit better and I'm really hoping it stays this way!🤰🏻@Peanut has been an amazing support for me since I found out I was pregnant again. Going through nausea and morning sickness while trying to keep the news a secret can be quite isolating. There are so many helpful threads on the app from other women who have been through it too. It's always reassuring to know you're not alone. Whether you're already a mom, pregnant, or trying to conceive, I really recommend you join the @peanut community. It's an amazing space to build friendships, find support and learn from other women at a similar stage in life. There's nothing like support from other women to get you through. ❤ #Peanutapp."
Now, it looks like it’s Cate and Ty’s turn!
Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra are currently reigning champs when it comes to the longest-running Teen Mom couple around.
They’ve been together since before they had their first daughter, Carly, and have since had two more beautiful little girls together.
But if it’s one thing Cate and Ty are missing from their lives… it’s a boy! They’ve both made it very clear that they want a boy in the family, so it’s no wonder that fans were excited when Catelynn dropped a pregnancy bombshell.
This news comes after months and months of the couple dropping hints that they’d be trying for a boy.
“Yes, we want more children,” Catelynn spilled in an interview with Us Weekly back in 2019. “We really want to try for a boy.”
Soon after this, Cate posted a video of her then-7-month-old daughter Vaeda walking for the first time.
“We have a scooter 😂 so I’m sure we r gonna crawl soon,” Cate captioned the photo. It was the comments section that got fans excited!
“We make such cute babies babe!” Tyler commented on the shot. Cate replied, “Yeah we do!!!! Wanna make another.”
The two have also previously shared that they wanted to “wait until vaeda is a little older, like, six months to a year.”
Well… now Vaeda is almost a year old and Cate is dropping a baby bombshell!
Vaeda’s birthday is right around the corner, which Catelynn celebrated by sharing these adorable newborn shots of her.
“How are you almost 1?!” Cate captured the sweet photo album. Then she dropped a bombshell about having another child.
“My sweet Vaeda,” Cate wrote, adding, “#ineedanother #lordmakeitaboy.”
It looks like Cate and Ty will be trying for another child very soon, and fans have mixed views on this update!
“Lord make it a boy? Wow, what a charming sentiment on a post about your baby girl,” wrote user Ohhijuhnelle on reddit. User ionlyjoined4thecats wrote, “I’m one of the people who doesn’t really hold the fact that they want a son against them. But this, this is abhorrent. YOU DO NOT WISH FOR A BOY ON YOUR BIRTHDAY POST TO YOUR DAUGHTER.”
User constantreader55 argued, “If you're getting pregnant specifically to have a boy and you will seriously be upset if you don't get the gender you're hoping for, you aren't ready for a baby.”
Do you think Cate and Ty are ready for a baby?
Meanwhile, the drama surrounding Kailyn’s pregnancy keeps getting more intense...
Kailyn Lowry Opens Up About Pregnancy Nightmare: 'It Hasn't Been Easy'
When your entire career is based upon your unexpected pregnancy or pregnancies, it’s easy to assume you’d get used to the heat and attention that comes with a pregnancy announcement. According to Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry, though, you never really get used to it.
After confirming that she was pregnant with her fourth child, Kailyn is sharing the uncomfortable sides of pregnancy. In addition to the heat from fans, she’s facing some scary health conditions.
At first, Kailyn herself wasn't sharing the news of her pregnancy. But someone close to her leaked the story: the family of the man who got her pregnant.
And how do we know this family, you ask? Well… It appears that the baby daddy is none other than Chris Lopez himself!
Kailyn and Chris’s relationship hasn’t exactly been a romantic love story before or after Kailyn gave birth to their child, Lux. Do you think it will change since they are apparently having another child together?!
“Wanna give a big congratulations to @kailynsfamily on the new addition [due] july 25.. Cant wait to meet baby number 2 for us- 4 for her,” wrote Instagram account @hhlg1975 today along with shots of an ultrasound. The account belongs to none other than Chris’s aunt!
As if this wasn’t enough, the nails in the photo clearly matched up to Kailyn’s nails on her Instagram back in December.
Now, we have Kailyn confirming all of this is true!
But even though this news was leaked weeks ago, Kailyn remained silent on the topic. Even though she skirted around the news, she did indirectly acknowledge all the rumors, implying that people didn't know the full story.
Her reluctance to confirm the news had fans wondering if Chris's Aunt made all of this up for attention. But now, there's no question in anyone's mind.
Kailyn is officially finally confirming the pregnancy firsthand. Click next to check out her adorable announcement!

But ever since Kailyn had her third son, she’s heavily identified as one thing: #MomOfBoys! She’s shared that she finds it easy to raise her boys, but that she definitely would like to have a daughter!
Now, the big news is coming out. Will this Mom of Boys now become a Mom of Boys… and a Girl?
Kailyn revealed that she’s staying true to her Mom of Boys brand, whether she likes it or not. She posted the adorable gender reveal on her Instagram!
“Although I already knew & felt it in my bones... the boys had no idea. GENDER REVEAL!” she captioned the shot on Instagram. She shared a link to an article that revealed that she’d be having another son!
The kids and I are so excited to be adding another baby boy into the mix,” Kailyn told Us Weekly. “Thank you all so much for your continued support & well wishes. Hopefully, the rest of this pregnancy will go smoothly as we anticipate the arrival of our newest addition.”
Even though it seems like things are going well for Kailyn now that the news is out, it turns out that this entire experience has been a lot harder on Kailyn than it seemed. She took to Instagram to share the discomfort she’s been feeling.
"Now that all the news is out, the pregnancy confirmation and the sex of the child...I hope that my anxiety dreams go away. I feel like this entire thing I was confused about and didn't know what to do and then people leaked it before I was ready and here we are weeks later and everything is out there," Kailyn shared via Instagram.
She added, "I feel better but I'm hoping maybe some of the anxiety will go away but I just wanted to say thank you to all of you guys who support and commented nice things and have been supportive along the way because it hasn't been easy, that's for sure. I literally will text Chelsea [Houska] and be like 'How do you stay private?! How should I do this?! What should I do?!'"
Kailyn signed off, saying, “So thank you all I really do appreciate it and I know that the boys will be thankful that you were supportive."
On top of the pressures of stardom, Kailyn also opened up about the health concerns she’s facing during the pregnancy.
We’re going to have to wait for confirmation from Kailyn if she is having a fourth boy, but for now we’re worried about her pregnancy altogether!
The Teen Mom star has been experiencing subchorionic bleeding, something that has occurred in previous pregnancies, including her miscarriage.
“I had this with Lux & I have it again this time around,” she wrote in an Instagram story. “Anyone else experience this?”
According to her post, the bleeding is painless and usually occurs in the first trimester. Later on Twitter, Kailyn revealed more about her condition.
“Progesterone shots every week again,” Kailyn tweeted. “Anyone else have this?”
Us Weekly reported that progesterone is a common treatment used on pregnant women who have previously experienced early labor or suffered a miscarriage. The hormone helps ensure there are enough dilated blood vessels in the uterus.
