'Teen Mom' star Kailyn Lowry welcomes fourth child, who is the father of the baby boy?
Kailyn Lowry is officially a mommy for the fourth time now. The 'Teen Mom' star gave birth to a baby boy on July 30. "No name yet but we are all healthy and so in love. I can check giving birth during a pandemic off my bucket list now," She told E! News while also revealing that the newborn baby is 8 lbs 15 oz and 22.5 inches long.
Lowry had announced in February that she is pregnant with her fourth child. She posted on Instagram, "I'm almost 16 weeks pregnant & it's been a rough few months this time around". She added, "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." US Weekly confirmed at the time that Chris Lopez is the father of the child. Lopez and Kailyn first met in college, and the two were in a casual relationship at that time. The couple also has a two-year-old son, Lux, together.
Earlier, the baby was supposed to be welcomed on July 25. Announcing the same, Chris went live on Instagram and said that he has been "preparing" for the 25th "for the longest time." Chris also admitted that he "doesn't know" the last time he saw his son, "I love my son, I see him when I can see him I done that [trying to see him] for so long, and look where it got me."
The couple has had a tumultuous relationship and have been on and off since she was pregnant with Lux. In 2019, Lowry also filed a protection from abuse order against Chris. A Delaware court clerk confirmed three cases against Chris for breaking the restraining order Lowry had taken out against him. In January, she accused him of cheating on her and also slammed him for not buying their son diapers.
She admitted that her fourth pregnancy has been the "toughest" one yet, saying, "Baby Boy & I are coming up on 29 weeks & so thankful to be in our third trimester! He still doesn’t have a name, but this is the chaos, it’s how we do things. Emotionally, this has probably been my toughest pregnancy. We’ve been keeping busy at home- planning and decorating his nursery, I can’t wait to show you the finished product!"
In July, Lowry confirmed that her pregnancy was considered "high-risk" which is why she wanted to give birth at home, explaining on her Coffee Convos podcast with co-host Lindsie Chrisley, that, "[My doctor] just is very open-minded and understands why I want to have a home birth... and understands why I don't want to get induced and all of that stuff."
Kailyn is also mom to 10-year old Isaac Rivera, whom she welcomed with ex Jo Rivera, six-year-old Lincoln Marroquin with ex Javi Marroquin and two-year-old Lux Lowry with Chris Lopez.
