Whether you’re a first time parent or a fifth time parent, raising young children can be nerve wracking. From accidents to illnesses, it’s every parent’s worst fear that they’ll have to rush their child to the emergency room.
Unfortunately, this exact scenario has happened to the Teen Mom cast numerous times, both on and off camera. Now, another Teen Mom couple is opening up about the frightening news.
When it comes to Teen Mom, the cameras have rolled inside of hospital walls countless times. Of course, normally, these are very happy occasions: when the crew gets footage of the girls giving birth!
But, of course, not everything that happens within hospital walls is happy, and MTV has also documented numerous emergency situations. Now it appears that another upsetting event may be captured on the show.
Although all of the Teen Mom cast have their fair share of drama, MTV raised the bar when they added a new couple to Teen Mom OG, Cheyenne Floyd and Cory Wharton.
Soon after Cheyenne and Cory had their daughter Ryder, the couple split up. Since then, Cory has also announced that his new girlfriend, Taylor Selfridge is pregnant, and there are shocking accusations that he’s been cheating on Taylor!
But no matter the drama in this family, Cory and Cheyenne will have to stay on good terms to raise their daughter Ryder!
And recently, their relationship was put to the test, as Ryder was just rushed to the hospital! Cheyenne opened up about it on Instagram.
“Ryder’s fever didn’t break and she couldn’t keep food down so we came to the [Emergency Room] to make sure everything was okay..” she shared. With [metabolic condition] VLCAD you can not fast.. The iv is giving her fluids and preventing a metabolic crisis.”
Cheyenne went on,
I’m praying her fever breaks. GOod news is that it’s not the flu so I’m hoping the fluids bring her back to her normal self and we can go home tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who has been reaching out.
Although it’s true that many fans offered an outpouring of love and support for Cheyenne and Ryder, some criticized Cheyenne’s decision to post this publicly!
“Please stop posting pictures of your childs most vulnerable moments. Thank you,” wrote user GuybrushsThreepwood on reddit. User WineNotReality agreed, “In general, public posts taking photos of sick kids when they are at the most vulnerable and posting on social seem invasive of the child and so needy on the parent’s part.” User Amateurcellist92 even penned:
“I’m a children’s doctor and I’m seeing more and more parents post photos of their children as long as they have an IV line or nasal cannula O2. I don’t get it but it’s happening quite a lot.
Recently, I was at a difficult delivery and I was literally resuscitating a newborn who was trying to die, yet all the mother cared about was that the sister was getting that first picture and asking for the baby’s weight. She was thrusting her phone with the camera on in the baby’s face (who had an O2 mask on and was flat and not breathing).
🤷♀️
But others defended Cheyenne. User BatMom525 wrote, “Really don’t like how many people are going in on Cheyenne about this. Her daughter is under the care of professionals and resting. I’d be a mess looking for a bit of positive feedback too.” User Fox-mom agreed, “I understand her posting. When my child was younger they spent months in the hospital and the medical issues were quite extensive. I was alone and scared and wanting to feel some sort of connection to anyone who could help me keep my sanity, so I posted frequently about their journey. “
Taylor Selfridge Speaks Out on Miscarriage News
When it comes to a show about pregnancies, births, and raising children, it’s no surprise that Teen Mom covers the difficulties and complications that often come along with them, including miscarriages. Over the years, the show has covered numerous miscarriages, and news recently broke that another star had suffered such a loss. However, now she’s setting the record straight.
MTV has captured some of the most beautiful moments in the Teen Mom cast’s lives over the years, but it’s also captured some of the most heartbreaking. Unfortunately, many of the cast members are no strangers to miscarriage, including Teen Mom OG star Catelynn Lowell.
At the time, a source spoke about the event to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup.
“It is actually really sad,” the source revealed. “Catelynn got pregnant and surprised Tyler and Nova and then had a miscarriage not long after. That happened right before she went to treatment [in November] when she tweeted about thinking about killing herself.”
They went on, “The crew and production staff heard she was about six weeks pregnant when it happened, but no one is 100% sure.”
What’s worse is that Catelynn had to relive the experience as she went forward with filming. “Catelynn had to talk about trying to get pregnant and then getting pregnant even after she had the miscarriage. We felt badly for her,” the source said.
Catelynn isn’t the only one to have suffered a miscarriage. Maci Bookout also opened up about having a miscarriage as well.
She and her husband, Taylor McKinney were talking about having more children when they revealed the family tragedy.
“We are not having another baby,” Maci told Taylor. “You really want another child?”
“I love kids. I wouldn’t be mad about it,” he replied.
Maci said that she would rather adopt, though she was open to conceiving again.
“If we want it to happen, it’s going to happen like that,” Taylor retorted.
But Maci reminded him that he was “forgetting something” and told him to “think about it.”
Taylor immediately looked upset and excused himself. Then, sitting alone, a producer asked Maci what had happened.
“I had a miscarriage,” Bookout told her. “Her name’s Dandy, Dandelion.”
Sadly, another Teen Mom OG couple has lost a child during pregnancy as well.
From the very beginning of her time on Teen Mom, Cheyenne Floyd and her baby daddy Cory Wharton’s relationship was pretty shaky. It wasn’t long before they broke things off… and next thing we knew, Cory revealed he was having a baby with another woman, Taylor Selfridge!
“It was definitely a surprise,” Cory spilled in an interview with Us Weekly. “Taylor is currently 11 weeks along, and this will be her first child. “Just being there from the day she found out that she’s pregnant and knowing that it was mine, I knew that I was going to have to step up.”
Cory is excited to do all the things as a new father that he did not get to do with his first daughter. “It’s exciting for me. It’s gonna be a lot, but I’m excited. I never went to an ultrasound, you know?” he said. “I never went to the doctor’s appointments to see her check-ups and things like that.”
Unfortunately, Taylor has just opened up about a tragic event in her pregnancy.
“Ok I didn’t think it would be a big deal to take a break from social media but apparently it is because everyone seems to think I’m missing now please don’t believe this stuff,” Taylor shared in her Instagram story.
“I’m doing just fine, I’m happy, healthy, our baby is healthy.”
She went on:
“A few days after the announcement we found out we were supposed to actually have twins, I ended up losing one of them.
She added, “But on the positive side, my baby is healthy! And I’m 19 weeks now.”
Taylor then clarified, “So now when I don’t post on social media. I didn’t go missing. I also want to say that it wasn’t about the loss of a twin, it was me not wanting to stress myself out too much over social media! I wanted to make sure my baby is as healthy as possible.”
Now, Taylor is making it clear that what happened to her was not a miscarriage.
“I don’t like that people are calling it a miscarriage now. It’s called vanishing twin syndrome or disappearing twin syndrome,” Taylor wrote on Instagram. She added, “We went in for a check-up on our baby and they had found a separate empty sac so we didn’t know that we had twins before that.”
She shared that her current goal is minimizing stress during her pregnancy.
“I was so stressed out during the first trimester that I was afraid it was my fault that happened and that’s what I struggle with now,” she wrote. She added, “Our baby is very healthy, we have no genetic issues to worry about after testing and we’re very happy about that.
