In the previous episode of her podcast, Kailyn disclosed that she endured a 17 hours labor before it was time to push.

Referring to Rio as 'Mr. Rocket,' Elijah explained why their baby boy didn't cry right after birth, stating, "The reason is when he came out, they said [his breathing] was hard to find. They took him over to the little baby stand thing and he was barely breathing and also had fluid in his lungs."
