Teens, Kaylen and Jason, soon-to-be parents of a baby boy of TLC's 'Unexpected' are looking at a full-fledged home birth. The two are very excited to be parents real soon.

The two met through Snapchat. While Jason describes Kaylen as a party girl, he calls himself a f***boy. He even explains how he used to go from one girl to another; it was like something like a game for him. Something about Kaylen instantly attracted him; he thinks she's cute. The two had sex on the second or third day they met. 'Unexpected' takes a raw look at teenage pregnancies and the effects on teen parents and their families as everyone prepares for the arrival of the babies.

Kaylen, 17, and Jason, 18, have only been dating for a year. When talking about their sex life, Jason mentioned how he doesn't like wearing condoms, and that too as his overly embarrassed parents, Scott and Heidi tried looking away from the camera. 

Jason's parents are in the hopes that their son makes the right life choices. He's their only child and they recall him being quite a handful growing up. Jason would constantly get into trouble, he even dropped out of school, always drove too fast, and got his license taken away as well. Jason isn't one to listen to his parents' opinions regarding his life. When questioned about the future, he explained how he thinks he'll get richer soon now that he's jumped on the parent wagon early on. 

Jason told his parents they were looking at alternative birthing options like a homebirth because he personally felt left out when they went to a hospital, what with the soon-to-be parents being teens and all. He even asks Scott for financial help; a homebirth costs a whopping $3000! To this, Scott tells his son to start saving for his own child's birth, and that he'll help a little but not fund the entire process.  

Stay tuned for new episodes of 'Unexpected' every Sunday, at 10 pm ET, on TLC.
