Catelynn Lowell Baltierra then-boyfriend Tyler Baltierra had a baby girl in 2009, who they put up for adoption. The child was named Carolyn "Carly" Elizabeth Davis. In 2014, she had her second child, Novalee Reign and later had Vaeda Luma Baltierra in 2019.

As seen in the 'Teen Mom OG' Season 10 trailer, Lowell and Baltierra were gearing up for their fourth child together. Having had three girls so far, the couple hoped to have a boy the fourth time around. "We really want to have a boy. We even looked at gender selection," Lowell said, as reported by Page Six.

"Getting pregnant hasn't been easy," she added. "I had a miscarriage a few years ago followed by a bunch of false positives and then another miscarriage. And even through all of the heartbreak, we kept trying." she explained. But, as fate would have it, the couple's fourth child was a baby girl. However, that did not stop the couple from being excited regarding the latest edition to their family, seeing that the couple has also decided that it would be their last. "Although Tyler's been vocal about wanting a boy he's not disappointed at all," Catelynn told Celebuzz. "His reaction was, 'Well I guess I'm not gonna get a boy' -LOL." she said.



 

Lowell took to Instagram to reveal the baby's name, which is Rya Rose. According to The Bump, Rya means 'river' or 'to flow' in old Greek, while Nameberry states that it means 'dream' in Arabic. Either way, young Rya's parents seem absolutely smitten by her. 

Apart from Lowell, Baliterra also took to Instagram, to post a picture of him with his daughter. The emotional caption read, "There is no better feeling in the world than hearing your baby's little breathing sync with yours as both of your heartbeats do the same through the warmth of your skin as it touches theirs. I'm head over heels in love!". 



 

You can catch the new season of 'Teen Mom OG' premieres on September 7 at 8/7C, on MTV.
